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

We investigated a deep learning strategy to analyze optical coherence tomography image for accurate tissue characterization based on a single fiber OCT probe. We obtained OCT data from human breast tissue specimens. Using OCT data obtained from adipose breast tissue (normal tissue) and diseased tissue as confirmed in histology, we trained and validated a convolutional neural network (CNN) for accurate breast tissue classification. We demonstrated tumor margin identification based CNN classification of tissue at different spatial locations. We further demonstrated CNN tissue classification in OCT imaging based on a manually scanned single fiber probe. Our results demonstrated that OCT imaging capability integrated into a low-cost, disposable single fiber probe, along with sophisticated deep learning algorithms for tissue classification, allows minimally invasive tissue characterization, and can be used for cancer diagnosis or surgical margin assessment.
