1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive cross-sectional imaging technology used to examine the retinal structure and pathology of the eye. Evaluating the thickness of the choroid using OCT images is of great interests for clinicians and researchers to monitor the choroidal thickness in many ocular diseases for diagnosis and management. However, manual segmentation and thickness profiling of choroid are time-consuming which lead to low efficiency in analyzing a large quantity of OCT images for swift treatment of patients. In this paper, an automatic segmentation approach based on convolutional neural network (CNN) classifier and
