Quantitative detection of cirrhosis: towards the development of computer-assisted detection method.
Article in Journal of digital imaging, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
There are distinct morphologic features of cirrhosis on CT examinations; however, such impressions may be subtle or subjective. The purpose of this study is to build a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) method to help radiologists with this diagnosis. One hundred sixty-seven abdominal CT examinations were randomly divided into training (n = 88) and validation (n = 79) sets. Livers were analyzed for morphological markers of cirrhosis and logistic regression models were created. Using the area under curve (AUC) for model performance, the best model had 0.89 for the training set and 0.85 for the validation set. For radiology reports, sensitivity of reporting cirrhosis was 0.45 and specificity 0.99. Using the predictive model adjunctively, radiologists' sensitivity increased to 0.63 and specificity slightly decreased to 0.97. This study demonstrates that quantifying morphological features in livers may be utilized for diagnosing cirrhosis and for developing a CAD method for it.
