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

aimTo present a content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system that supports the classification of breast tissue density and can be used in the processing chain to adapt parameters for lesion segmentation and classification.

methodsBreast density is characterized by image texture using singular value decomposition (SVD) and histograms. Pattern similarity is computed by a support vector machine (SVM) to separate the four BI-RADS tissue categories. The crucial number of remaining singular values is varied (SVD), and linear, radial, and polynomial kernels are investigated (SVM). The system is supported by a large reference database for training and evaluation. Experiments are based on 5-fold cross validation.

resultsAdopted from DDSM, MIAS, LLNL, and RWTH datasets, the reference database is composed of over 10 000 various mammograms with unified and reliable ground truth. An average precision of 82.14% is obtained using 25 singular values (SVD), polynomial kernel and the one-against-one (SVM).

conclusionBreast density characterization using SVD allied with SVM for image retrieval enable the development of a CBIR system that can effectively aid radiologists in their diagnosis.
