Diabetes detection from non-diabetic retinopathy fundus images using deep learning methodology.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Diabetes is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the United States and worldwide. Traditionally, diabetes detection from retinal images has been performed only using relevant retinopathy indications. This research aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) machine learning model which can detect the presence of diabetes from fundus imagery of eyes without any diabetic eye disease. A machine learning algorithm was trained on the EyePACS dataset, consisting of 47,076 images. Patients were also divided into cohorts based on disease duration, each cohort consisting of patients diagnosed within the timeframe in question (e.g., 15 years) and healthy participants. The algorithm achieved 0.86 area under receiver operating curve (AUC) in detecting diabetes per patient visit when averaged across camera models, and AUC 0.83 on the task of detecting diabetes per image. The results suggest that diabetes may be diagnosed non-invasively using fundus imagery alone. This may enable diabetes diagnosis at point of care, as well as other, accessible venues, facilitating the diagnosis of many undiagnosed people with diabetes.
