Abbreviations: AL, axial length; D, diopters; NA, not applicable; SER, spherical equivalent refraction.

a

The intervention group included those who continued the intervention and those with interrupted intervention.

b

Risk difference, absolute efficacy = value in control group − value in intervention group.

c

Relative risk = value in intervention group/value in control group.

d

Relative efficacy = (value in control group − value in intervention group)/value in control group.

e

The t test was used for change of AL and SER, and the χ2 test was used for incidence.
