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

The prompt detection and proper evaluation of necrotic retinal region are especially important for the diagnosis and treatment of acute retinal necrosis (ARN). The potential application of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms in these areas of clinical research has not been reported previously. The present study aims to create a computational algorithm for the automated detection and evaluation of retinal necrosis from retinal fundus photographs. A total of 149 wide-angle fundus photographs from 40 eyes of 32 ARN patients were collected, and the U-Net method was used to construct the AI algorithm. Thereby, a novel algorithm based on deep machine learning in detection and evaluation of retinal necrosis was constructed for the first time. This algorithm had an area under the receiver operating curve of 0.92, with 86% sensitivity and 88% specificity in the detection of retinal necrosis. For the purpose of retinal necrosis evaluation, necrotic areas calculated by the AI algorithm were significantly positively correlated with viral load in aqueous humor samples (
