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

Primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) is a major cause of irreversible blindness, characterized by shallow anterior chambers and narrow angles. In our study, we used anterior segment photographs from a modified mobile camera to develop algorithms for identifying narrow anterior chamber angles (NACA). We calculated eight biological parameters after preprocessing the images, segmenting the corneal and iris light bands, and modeling the central anterior chamber. In the training dataset, the accuracy of NACA identification using these parameters ranged from 0.68 to 0.85, with an AUC of 0.76 to 0.90. The internal test dataset's accuracy ranged from 0.65 to 0.85, with sensitivity between 0.40 and 0.95 and specificity between 0.61 and 1.00. An ensemble model achieved a sensitivity of 0.90 and a specificity of 0.85 on the internal test dataset, but its performance declined on external datasets. Despite generalization challenges, portable slit lamps equipped with advanced algorithms show promise for NACA screening.
