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

Schistosomiasis is one of the dangerous parasitic diseases that affect the liver tissues leading to liver fibrosis. Such disease has several levels, which indicate the degree of fibrosis severity. To assess the fibrosis level for diagnosis and treatment, the microscopic images of the liver tissues were examined at their different stages. In the present work, an automated staging method is proposed to classify the statistical extracted features from each fibrosis stage using an ensemble classifier, namely the subspace ensemble using linear discriminant learning scheme. The performance of the subspace/discriminant ensemble classifier was compared to other ensemble combinations, namely the boosted/trees ensemble, bagged/trees ensemble, subspace/KNN ensemble, and the RUSBoosted/trees ensemble. The simulation results established the superiority of the proposed subspace/discriminant ensemble with 90% accuracy compared to the other ensemble classifiers.
