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 angiography (OCTA) is an imaging modality that can be used for analyzing retinal vasculature. Quantitative assessment of en face OCTA images requires accurate segmentation of the capillaries. Using deep learning approaches for this task faces two major challenges. First, acquiring sufficient manual delineations for training can take hundreds of hours. Second, OCTA images suffer from numerous contrast-related artifacts that are currently inherent to the modality and vary dramatically across scanners. We propose to solve both problems by learning a disentanglement of an anatomy component and a local contrast component from paired OCTA scans. With the contrast removed from the anatomy component, a deep learning model that takes the anatomy component as input can learn to segment vessels with a limited portion of the training images being manually labeled. Our method demonstrates state-of-the-art performance for OCTA vessel segmentation.
