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

aimTo explore the current application and research frontiers of global ophthalmic optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging artificial intelligence (AI) research.

methodsThe citation data were downloaded from the Web of Science Core Collection database (WoSCC) to evaluate the articles in application of AI in ophthalmic OCT published from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2023. This information was analyzed using CiteSpace 6.2.R2 Advanced software, and high-impact articles were analyzed.

resultsIn general, 877 articles from 65 countries were studied and analyzed, of which 261 were published by the United States and 252 by China. The centrality of the United States is 0.33, the H index is 38, and the H index of two institutions in England reaches 20. Ophthalmology, computer science, and AI are the main disciplines involved. Hot keywords after 2018 include deep learning (DL), AI, macular degeneration, and automatic segmentation.

conclusionThe annual number of articles on AI applications in ophthalmic OCT has grown rapidly. The United States holds a prominent position. Institutions like the University of California System and the University of London are spearheading advancements. Initial researches centered on the automatic recognition and diagnosis of ocular diseases leveraging traditional machine learning (ML) technology and OCT images. Nowadays, the imaging process algorithm selection has shifted its focus towards DL. Concurrently, optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) have emerged as key areas of contemporary research.
