Application of non-mydriatic fundus examination and artificial intelligence to promote the screening of diabetic retinopathy in the endocrine clinic: an observational study of T2DM patients in Tianjin, China.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundWe aimed to determine the role of non-mydriatic fundus examination and artificial intelligence (AI) in screening diabetic retinopathy (DR) in patients with diabetes in the Metabolic Disease Management Center (MMC) in Tianjin, China.
methodsAdult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were first treated by MMC in Tianjin First Central Hospital and Tianjin 4th Center Hospital were divided into two groups according to the time that MMC was equipped with the non-mydriatic ophthalmoscope and AI system and could complete fundus examination independently (the former was the control group, the latter was the observation group). The observation indices were as follows: the incidence of DR, the fundus screening rate of the two groups, and fundus screening of diabetic patients with different course of disease.
resultsA total of 5039 patients were enrolled in this study. The incidence rate of DR was 18.6%, 29.8%, and 49.6% in patients with diabetes duration of ⩽1 year, 1-5 years, and >5 years, respectively. The screening rate of fundus in the observation group was significantly higher compared with the control group (81.3%
conclusionsIn the case of limited medical resources, MMC can carry out one-stop examination, treatment, and management of DR through non-mydratic fundus examination and AI assistance, thus incorporating the DR screening process into the endocrine clinic, so as to facilitate early diagnosis.
