Abstract
To review the existing deep learning applications for diagnosing diabetic retinopathy and retinopathy of prematurity diseases, the available public retinal databases for the diseases and apply the International Journal of Medical Informatics (IJMEDI) checklist were assessed the quality of included studies; an in-depth literature search in Scopus, Web of Science, IEEE and ACM databases targeting articles from inception up to 31st January 2023 was done by two independent reviewers. In the review, 26 out of 1476 articles with a total of 36 models were included. Data size and model validation were found to be challenges for most studies. Deep learning models are gaining focus in the development of medical diagnosis tools and applications. However, there seems to be a critical issue with most of the studies being published, with some not including information about data sources and data sizes which is important for their performance verification.
为了回顾现有的深度学习在诊断糖尿病视网膜病变和早产儿视网膜病变方面的应用，利用现有的公共视网膜数据库并应用国际医学信息学杂志（IJMEDI）检查表评估纳入研究的质量；两位独立审稿人对Scopus、Web of Science、IEEE和ACM数据库进行了深入的文献检索，目标是从成立到2023年1月31日的文章。本次综述共纳入1476篇文献中的26篇，共36个模型。数据大小和模型验证被发现是大多数研究的挑战。深度学习模型在医疗诊断工具和应用的开发中越来越受到关注。然而，大多数已发表的研究似乎存在一个关键问题，其中一些研究没有包括对其性能验证很重要的数据源和数据大小的信息。
