The effect of optical degradation from cataract using a new Deep Learning optical coherence tomography segmentation algorithm.

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.
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
purposeTo assess the validity of the results of a freely available online Deep Learning segmentation tool and its sensitivity to noise introduced by cataract.
methodsThe OCT images were collected with a Spectralis SD-OCT (Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg, Germany) as part of normal clinical practice. Data were segmented using a freely available online tool called Relayer ( https://www.relayer.online/ ), based on a cross-platform Deep Learning segmentation architecture specifically adapted for retinal OCT images. The segmentations were read into MATLAB (The MathWorks, Natick, MA, USA) and analyzed.
resultsThere was an excellent agreement between the ETDRS measurements obtained from the two algorithms. Upon visual inspection, the segmentation based on Deep Learning obtained with Relayer appeared more accurate except in one case of apparent good quality image showing interrupted segmentations in some of the B-scans.
conclusionA freely available online Deep Learning segmentation tool showed good and promising performance in healthy retinas before and after cataract surgery, proving robust to optical degradation of the image from media opacities.
