Prediction of Cataract Severity Using Slit Lamp Images from a Portable Smartphone Device: A Pilot Study.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cataract diagnosis requires a comprehensive dilated examination by an ophthalmologist using a slit lamp; there is currently no effective means to objectively screen for cataracts in the community using portable devices without dilation. We hypothesized that it would be possible to predict cataract severity using deep learning on images taken using a portable smartphone-based slit lamp prototype, with and without dilation. In this prospective cross-sectional pilot study, slit lamp images were captured from eligible patients with cataracts in a tertiary clinic using a portable slit lamp prototype attached to a smartphone.
