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

Purpose: The discrepancy of the number between ophthalmologists and patients in China is large. Retinal vein occlusion (RVO), high myopia, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy (DR) are common fundus diseases. Therefore, in this study, a five-category intelligent auxiliary diagnosis model for common fundus diseases is proposed; the model's area of focus is marked. Methods: A total of 2000 fundus images were collected; 3 different 5-category intelligent auxiliary diagnosis models for common fundus diseases were trained via different transfer learning and image preprocessing techniques. A total of 1134 fundus images were used for testing. The clinical diagnostic results were compared with the diagnostic results. The main evaluation indicators included sensitivity, specificity, F1-score, area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), 95% confidence interval (CI), kappa, and accuracy. The interpretation methods were used to obtain the model's area of focus in the fundus image. Results: The accuracy rates of the 3 intelligent auxiliary diagnosis models on the 1134 fundus images were all above 90%, the kappa values were all above 88%, the diagnosis consistency was good, and the AUC approached 0.90. For the 4 common fundus diseases, the best results of sensitivity, specificity, and F1-scores of the 3 models were 88.27%, 97.12%, and 84.02%; 89.94%, 99.52%, and 93.90%; 95.24%, 96.43%, and 85.11%; and 88.24%, 98.21%, and 89.55%, respectively. Conclusions: This study designed a five-category intelligent auxiliary diagnosis model for common fundus diseases. It can be used to obtain the diagnostic category of fundus images and the model's area of focus. Translational Relevance: This study will help the primary doctors to provide effective services to all ophthalmologic patients.
