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

purposeTo train generative adversarial network (GAN) models to generate predictive optical coherence tomography (OCT) images of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) at 3 months after observation using multi-modal OCT images.

methodsFour hundred forty CSC eyes of 440 patients who underwent Cirrus OCT imaging were included. Baseline OCT B-scan images through the foveal center, en face choroid, and en face ellipsoid zone were collected from each patient. The datasets were divided into training and validation (n = 390) and test (n = 50) sets. The input images for each model comprised either baseline B-scan alone or a combination of en face choroid and ellipsoid zones. Predictive post-treatment OCT B-scan images were generated using GAN models and compared with real 3-month images.

resultsOf 50 generated OCT images, there were 48, 47, and 48 acceptable images for UNIT, CycleGAN, and RegGAN, respectively. In comparison with real 3-month images, the generated images showed sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive values (PPV) for residual fluid in the ranges of 0.762-1.000, 0.483-0.724, and 0.583-0.704; for pigment epithelial detachment (PED) of 0.917-1.000, 0.974-1.000, and 0.917-1.000; and for subretinal hyperreflective material (SHRM) of 0.667-0.778, 0.925-0.950 and 0.700-0.750, respectively. RegGAN exhibited the highest values except for sensitivity.

conclusionsGAN models could generate prognostic OCT images with good performance for prediction of residual fluid, PED, and SHRM presence in CSC. Implementation of the models may help predict disease activity in CSC, facilitating the establishment of a proper treatment plan.
