Purpose: To investigate the effectiveness and cutoffs of axial length/corneal radius (AL/CR) ratio for myopia detection in children by age. Methods: Totally, 21 kindergartens and schools were enrolled. Non-cycloplegic autorefraction (NCAR), axial length (AL), horizontal and vertical meridian of corneal radius (CR1, CR2), and cycloplegic autorefraction were measured. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to obtain the effectiveness and cutoff for myopia detection. Results: Finally, 7803 participants aged 3–18 years with mean AL/CR ratio of 2.99 ± 0.16 were included. Area under the ROC curve (AUC) of AL/CR ratio for myopia detection (0.958 for AL/CR1, 0.956 for AL/CR2, 0.961 for AL/CR) was significantly larger than that of AL (0.919, all P < 0.001), while AUCs of the three were similar with different cutoffs (> 2.98, > 3.05, and > 3.02). When divided by age, the ROC curves of AL/CR ratio in 3- to 5-year-olds showed no significance or low accuracy (AUCs ≤ 0.823) in both genders. In ≥ 6-year-olds, the accuracies were promising (AUCs ≥ 0.883, all P < 0.001), the cutoffs basically increased with age (from > 2.93 in 6-year-olds to > 3.07 in 18-year-olds among girls, and from > 2.96 in 6-year-olds to > 3.07 in 18-year-olds among boys). In addition, boys presented slightly larger cutoffs than girls in all ages except for 16 and 18 years old. For children aged 3–5 years, AL/CR ratio or AL combined with NCAR increased AUC to > 0.900. Conclusion: AL/CR ratio provided the best prediction of myopia with age-dependent cutoff values for all but preschool children, and the cutoffs of boys were slightly larger than those of girls. For preschool children, AL/CR ratio or AL combined with NCAR is recommended to achieve satisfactory accuracy. AL/CR ratio calculated by two meridians showed similar predictive power but with different cutoffs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
