Detection of Apple Leaf Diseases Based on LightYOLO-AppleLeafDx.
Article in Plants (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Early detection of apple leaf diseases is essential for enhancing orchard management efficiency and crop yield. This study introduces LightYOLO-AppleLeafDx, a lightweight detection framework based on an improved YOLOv8 model. Key enhancements include the incorporation of Slim-Neck, SPD-Conv, and SAHead modules, which optimize the model's structure to improve detection accuracy and recall while significantly reducing the number of parameters and computational complexity. Ablation studies validate the positive impact of these modules on model performance. The final LightYOLO-AppleLeafDx achieves a precision of 0.930, mAP@0.5 of 0.965, and mAP@0.5:0.95 of 0.587, surpassing the original YOLOv8n and other benchmark models. The model is highly lightweight, with a size of only 5.2 MB, and supports real-time detection at 107.2 frames per second. When deployed on an RV1103 hardware platform via an NPU-compatible framework, it maintains a detection speed of 14.8 frames per second, demonstrating practical applicability. These results highlight the potential of LightYOLO-AppleLeafDx as an efficient and lightweight solution for precision agriculture, addressing the need for accurate and real-time apple leaf disease detection.
