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

Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness in working-age adults worldwide. Neovascular leakage on fluorescein angiography indicates progression to the proliferative stage of diabetic retinopathy, which is an important distinction that requires timely ophthalmic intervention with laser or intravitreal injection treatment to reduce the risk of severe, permanent vision loss. In this study, we developed a deep learning algorithm to detect neovascular leakage on ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography images obtained from patients with diabetic retinopathy. The algorithm, an ensemble of three convolutional neural networks, was able to accurately classify neovascular leakage and distinguish this disease marker from other angiographic disease features. With additional real-world validation and testing, our algorithm could facilitate identification of neovascular leakage in the clinical setting, allowing timely intervention to reduce the burden of blinding diabetic eye disease.
