Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Slit-lamp and retinal fundus images collected from Department of Infectious Diseases, Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Department of Infectious Diseases, Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Affiliated Huadu Hospital of Southern Medical University, Nantian Medical Centre of Aikang Health Care, and Huanshidong Medical Centre of Aikang Health Care.

Who may be able to join

  • The quality of fundus and slit-lamp images should clinical acceptable.
  • More than 90% of the fundus image area including four main regions (optic disk, macular, upper and lower retinal vessel archs) are easy to read and discriminate.
  • More than 90% of the slit-lamp image area including three main regions (sclera, pupil, and lens) are easy to read and discriminate.

Who cannot join

  • Images with light leakage (>10% of the area), spots from lens flares or stains, and overexposure were excluded from further analysis.

About this study

Artificial Intelligence may provide insight into exploring the potential covert association behind and reveal some early ocular architecture changes in individuals with hepatobiliary disorders. We conducted a pioneer work to explore the association between the eye and liver via deep learning, to develop and evaluate different deep learning models to predict the hepatobiliary disease by using ocular images.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the deep learning system

    The investigators will calculate the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of deep learning system and compare this index between deep learning system and human doctors

    Measured: baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. sensitivity and specificity of the deep learning system

    The investigators will calculate the sensitivity and specifity of deep learning system and compare this index between deep learning system and human doctors

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ophthalmology and Artificial Intelligence, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the deep learning system (time frame: baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Aug 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 28 Oct 2026.
