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

Accurate anatomical measurements of the eyelids are essential in periorbital plastic surgery for both disease treatment and procedural planning. Recent researches in eye diseases have adopted deep learning works to measure MRD. However, such works encounter challenges in practical implementation, and the model accuracy needs to be improved. Here, we have introduced a deep learning-based adaptive and automatic measurement (DeepAAM) by employing the U-Net architecture enhanced through attention mechanisms and multiple algorithms. DeepAAM enables adaptive image recognition and adjustment in practical application, and improves the measurement accuracy of Marginal Reflex Distance (MRD). Meanwhile, it for the first time measures the Margin Iris Intersectant Angle (MIA) as an innovative evaluation index. Besides, this fully automated method surpasses other models in terms of accuracy for iris and sclera segmentation. DeepAAM offers a novel, comprehensive, and objective approach to the quantification of ocular morphology.
