Application of the Full-Width-at-Half-Maximum Image Segmentation Method to Analyse Retinal Vascular Changes in Patients with Diabetic Retinopathy.
Review in Journal of healthcare engineering, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study used spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and full-width-at-half-maximum image segmentation to investigate the morphological changes of retinal blood vessels in patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR). Seventy-five patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) without DR and 65 patients with DR were studied. Vascular images of superior temporal region B of the retina were obtained by SD-OCT. The edges of retinal vessels were identified by the full-width-at-half-maximum image segmentation method. The lumen diameter, wall thickness (WT), wall cross-sectional area (WCSA), and wall-to-lumen ratio (WLR) were investigated. We found that, compared with the no diabetic retinopathy (NDR) group, patients in the DR group had an increased retinal arteriolar lumen diameter (RALD), retinal arteriolar outer diameter (RAOD), and WT (128.80
