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

In medicine, white blood cells (WBCs) play an important role in the human immune system. The different types of WBC abnormalities are related to different diseases so that the total number and classification of WBCs are critical for clinical diagnosis and therapy. However, the traditional method of white blood cell classification is to segment the cells, extract features, and then classify them. Such method depends on the good segmentation, and the accuracy is not high. Moreover, the insufficient data or unbalanced samples can cause the low classification accuracy of model by using deep learning in medical diagnosis. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a new blood cell image classification framework which is based on a deep convolutional generative adversarial network (DC-GAN) and a residual neural network (ResNet). In particular, we introduce a new loss function which is improved the discriminative power of the deeply learned features. The experiments show that our model has a good performance on the classification of WBC images, and the accuracy reaches 91.7%. Graphical Abstract Overview of the proposed method, we use the deep convolution generative adversarial networks (DC-GAN) to generate new samples that are used as supplementary input to a ResNet, the transfer learning method is used to initialize the parameters of the network, the output of the DC-GAN and the parameters are applied the final classification network. In particular, we introduced a modified loss function for classification to increase inter-class variations and decrease intra-class differences.
