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
objectiveWe developed an optimized decision support system for retinal fundus image-based glaucoma screening.
methodsWe combined computer vision algorithms with a convolutional network for fundus images and applied a faster region-based convolutional neural network (FRCNN) and artificial algae algorithm with support vector machine (AAASVM) classifiers. Optic boundary detection, optic cup, and optic disc segmentations were conducted using TernausNet. Glaucoma screening was performed using the optimized FRCNN. The Softmax layer was replaced with an SVM classifier layer and optimized with an AAA to attain enhanced accuracy.
resultsUsing three retinal fundus image datasets (G1020, digital retinal images vessel extraction, and high-resolution fundus), we obtained accuracy of 95.11%, 92.87%, and 93.7%, respectively. Framework accuracy was amplified with an adaptive gradient algorithm optimizer FRCNN (AFRCNN), which achieved average accuracy 94.06%, sensitivity 93.353%, and specificity 94.706%. AAASVM obtained average accuracy of 96.52%, which was 3% ahead of the FRCNN classifier. These classifiers had areas under the curve of 0.9, 0.85, and 0.87, respectively.
conclusionBased on statistical Friedman evaluation, AAASVM was the best glaucoma screening model. Segmented and classified images can be directed to the health care system to assess patients' progress. This computer-aided decision support system will be useful for optometrists.
