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

Bietti crystalline dystrophy (BCD) is an autosomal recessive inherited retinal disease (IRD) and its early precise diagnosis is much challenging. This study aims to diagnose BCD and classify the clinical stage based on ultra-wide-field (UWF) color fundus photographs (CFPs) via deep learning (DL). All CFPs were labeled as BCD, retinitis pigmentosa (RP) or normal, and the BCD patients were further divided into three stages. DL models ResNeXt, Wide ResNet, and ResNeSt were developed, and model performance was evaluated using accuracy and confusion matrix. Then the diagnostic interpretability was verified by the heatmaps. The models achieved good classification results. Our study established the largest BCD database of Chinese population. We developed a quick diagnosing method for BCD and evaluated the potential efficacy of an automatic diagnosis and grading DL algorithm based on UWF fundus photography in a Chinese cohort of BCD patients.
