Localization of Nuclei in Breast Cancer Using Whole Slide Imaging System Supported by Morphological Features and Shape Formulas.
Article in Cancer management and research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposeCancer rates are exponentially increasing worldwide and over 15 million new cases are expected in the year 2020 according to the World Cancer Report. To support the clinical diagnosis of the disease, recent technical advancements in digital microscopy have been achieved to reduce the cost and increase the efficiency of the process. Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) has issued the guidelines, in particular, the development of digital whole slide image scanning system. It is very helpful to the computer-aided diagnosis of breast cancer.
methodsWhole slide imaging supported by fluorescence, immunohistochemistry, and multispectral imaging concepts. Due to the high dimension of WSI images and computation, it is a challenging task to find the region of interest (ROI) on a malignant sample image. The unsupervised machine learning and quantitative analysis of malignant sample images are supported by morphological features and shape formulas to find the correct region of interest. Due to computational limitations, it starts to work on small patches, integrate the results, and automated localize or detect the ROI. It is also compared to the handcrafted and automated region of interest provided in the ICIAR2018 dataset.
resultsA total of 10 hematoxylins and eosin (H&E) stained malignant breast histology microscopy whole slide image samples are labeled and annotated by two medical experts who are team members of the ICIAR 2018 challenge. After applying the proposed methodology, it is successfully able to localize the malignant patches of WSI sample images and getting the ROI with an average accuracy of 85.5%.
conclusionWith the help of the k-means clustering algorithm, morphological features, and shape formula, it is possible to recognize the region of interest using the whole slide imaging concept.
