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

This study presents and evaluates a rapid digital color vision deficiency test using a color-naming task supported by a neural network model. Thirty-three normal trichromats, 12 dichromats, and 11 anomalous trichromats named 182 natural-scene colors using 11 basic terms. A neural network classified individuals for screening, classification, and diagnosis. Sensitivity and specificity reached 97% and 99% for screening analyzing the full and a 20-color subset, respectively. For classification and diagnosis, accuracy was slightly lower. Results show that color naming can efficiently detect deficiencies, suggesting that a fast and accurate screening test using only 20 colors can be completed in under 2 min.
