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

Contrast-enhanced digital mammography (CEDM) is a promising imaging modality in breast cancer diagnosis. This study aims to investigate how to optimally develop a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) scheme of CEDM images to classify breast masses. A CEDM dataset of 111 patients was assembled, which includes 33 benign and 78 malignant cases. Each CEDM includes two types of images namely, low energy (LE) and dual-energy subtracted (DES) images. A CAD scheme was applied to segment mass regions depicting on LE and DES images separately. Optimal segmentation results generated from DES images were also mapped to LE images or vice versa. After computing image features, multilayer perceptron based machine learning classifiers that integrate with a correlation-based feature subset evaluator and leave-one-case-out cross-validation method were built to classify mass regions. When applying CAD to DES and LE images with original segmentation, areas under ROC curves (AUC) were 0.759 ± 0.053 and 0.753 ± 0.047, respectively. After mapping the mass regions optimally segmented on DES images to LE images, AUC significantly increased to 0.848 ± 0.038 (p < 0.01). Study demonstrated that DES images eliminated overlapping effect of dense breast tissue, which helps improve mass segmentation accuracy. The study demonstrated that applying a novel approach to optimally map mass region segmented from DES images to LE images enabled CAD to yield significantly improved performance.
