Anterior chamber inflammation grading with automatized image processing software.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) is a non-invasive imaging modality to assess anterior ocular structures at micron levels. AS-OCT image processing has been implemented in evaluating anterior chamber inflammation with differing approaches and biomarkers across studies. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the agreement between AS-OCT–derived cell count and cell density and slit-lamp based anterior chamber cell grading using the Standardization of Uveitis Nomenclature (SUN) criteria. Secondarily, we aimed to integrate multiple AS-OCT–based biomarkers reported in prior studies into a single rule-based computational framework. We analyzed 450 images from 92 AS-OCT scans of 79 eyes (48 non-infectious, 10 infectious, 21 control) for cell count, density, morphology (area, eccentricty), aqueous-to-air relative intensity (ARI) index and anterior chamber (AC) area. Cell count and cell density were significantly different for each SUN grading score (p < 0.001). There was a significant positive correlation between the SUN grading score and ARI index (Spearman’s p < 0.001 rho = 0.410) and cell area (Spearman’s p < 0.001 rho = 0.22). Eyes with active inflammation demonstrated significantly higher ARI index (100.48[5.14] vs. 99.12[2.57] p < 0.001 r = 0.25, %95 CI [1.22, 2.71]) and eccentricity ( 0.57[0.19] vs. 0.00[0.75], p = 0.05, r = 0.11, %95 CI [0.00, 0.52]) than control eyes. No significant differences were found in cell morphology (area, eccentricity) between infectious and non-infectious uveitis. Automated AS-OCT based image processing provided a rule-based, device-specific computational framework for quantifying AC inflammation that alings with clinical grading and it may serve as a complementary tool for assessing anterior chamber inflammation in uveitis.
