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 study was to investigate the diagnostic value of ultrasound based on the random forest segmentation algorithm for dry eye disease and the relationship between dry eye degree and tear osmotic pressure. Specifically, 100 patients with dry eye syndrome were selected as the research subjects, and they were divided into group A (conventional ultrasonic detection) and group B (ultrasonic detection based on the random forest segmentation algorithm), with 50 patients in each group. An ultrasonic measurement was used as the gold standard to evaluate the effect of ultrasonic diagnosis. The degree of dry eye was determined by Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) Questionnaire and DR-1 tear film lipid layer (TFLL) test. The tear osmotic pressure was measured, and the relationship between the degree of dry eye disease and the tear osmotic pressure was analyzed. The results showed that the ultrasonic imaging effect and each index based on random forest algorithm were better than the traditional graph cut algorithm. The average central corneal thickness (CCT) values of group A and group B were (27.8 ± 30.6)
