Multimodal Masked Autoencoder Based on Adaptive Masking for Vitiligo Stage Classification.
Article in Journal of imaging informatics in medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
Vitiligo, a prevalent skin condition characterized by depigmentation, presents challenges in staging due to its inherent complexity. Multimodal skin images can provide complementary information, and in this study, the integration of clinical images of vitiligo and those obtained under Wood's lamp is conducive to the classification of vitiligo stages. However, difficulties in annotating multimodal data and the scarcity of multimodal data limit the performance of deep learning models in related classification tasks. To address these issues, a Multimodal Masked Autoencoder (Multi-MAE) based on adaptive masking is proposed in annotating multimodal data and the problem of multimodal data scarcity, and enhances the model's ability to extract characteristics from multimodal data. Specifically, an image reconstruction task is constructed to diminish reliance on annotated multimodal data, and a pre-training strategy is employed to alleviate the scarcity of multimodal data. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model achieves a vitiligo stage classification accuracy of 95.48% on a dataset of unlabeled dermatological images, an improvement of 5.16%, 4.51%, 3.87%, 2.58%, 4.51%, 4.51%, 3.87%, and 2.58% over that of MobileNet, DenseNet, VGG, ResNet-50, BEIT, MaskFeat, SimMIM, and MAE, respectively. These results verify the effectiveness of the proposed Multi-MAE model in assessing the stable and active vitiligo stages, making it a suitable clinical aid for evaluating the severity of vitiligo lesions.
