Self-supervised learning-enhanced deep learning method for identifying myopic maculopathy in high myopia patients.

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
Accurate detection and timely care for patients with high myopia present significant challenges. We developed a deep learning (DL) system enhanced by a self-supervised learning (SSL) approach to improve the automatic diagnosis of myopic maculopathy (MM). Using a dataset of 7,906 images from the Shanghai High Myopia Screening Project and a public validation set of 1,391 images from MMAC2023, our method significantly outperformed conventional techniques. Internally, it achieved 96.8% accuracy, 83.1% sensitivity, and 95.6% specificity, with AUC values of 0.982 and 0.999. Externally, it maintained 89.0% accuracy, 71.7% sensitivity, and 87.8% specificity, with AUC values of 0.978 and 0.973. The model's Cohen's kappa values exceeded 0.8, indicating substantial agreement with retinal experts. Our SSL-enhanced DL approach offers high accuracy and potential to enhance large-scale myopia screenings, demonstrating broader significance in improving early detection and treatment of MM.
