Abstract
Aim
This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of deep learning models for detecting and predicting diabetes related kidney disease (DRKD) using two-dimensional retinal images.
Methods
A systematic review was conducted across eight databases from inception to July 14, 2026. Eligible cross-sectional and longitudinal studies assessed deep learning models for DRKD detection or prediction using retinal images alone, clinical data alone, or hybrid models. Data on study design, model development, validation, and performance metrics were extracted, with study quality appraised using QUADAS-2 and post hoc, PROBAST+AI. Results were synthesized narratively, with random effects meta analysis for hybrid models.
