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

Purpose: This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of global publications on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in high myopia (HM). Methods: We retrieved publications on AI in HM from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database, MEDLINE and Chinese Science Citation Database (CSCD) with data up to 2024. The analysis focused on publication and citation trends, identifying key articles, influential countries, institutions, authors, and journals. Additionally, we explored research domains and emerging keywords. Results: A total of 167 relevant publications were included. The first AI-related paper on HM was published in 2017, with a significant surge in 2021, followed by a consistent increase in publication and citation counts over the next 3 years. China emerged as the most productive country, with the most extensive international collaboration. East Asian authors dominated the top 10 most influential authors. Yang, Weihua and Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science (IOVS) contributed the most publications among authors and institutions, respectively. Keyword analysis revealed that retinal imaging-related terms remained a consistent research focus, while newly emerging keywords included "automated detection" and "childhood." Conclusion: Recent advancements in AI applications for HM have been significant and are expected to continue. Future research will likely focus on multimodal imaging and improving algorithm accessibility. Our findings offered the first comprehensive overview of global research on AI in HM, thus providing valuable insights for researchers to understand the current status and future trends in this field.
