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.

Abstract

backgroundThe purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of wound area measurement at a curved surface using a digital planimetry (DP) with the newly proposed adaptive calibration.

methodsForty wound shapes were printed and placed at the side surfaces of cylinders with diameters of 9.4 and 6.2 cm. Area measurements were carried out using a commercial device SilhouetteMobile (Aranz, New Zealand) and the planimetric app Planimator. Planimetric area measurements were carried out using 2 one-dimensional calibration markers placed above and below the wound shape. The method of adaptive calibration for DP was described. Reference area values of wound shapes were obtained by pixel counting on digital scans made with an optical scanner. Relative errors (REs) and relative differences (RDs) for area measurements were analyzed.

resultsThe median of REs for the DP with adaptive calibration (DPwAC) was equal to 0.60% and was significantly smaller than the median for the SilhouetteMobile device (SMD) (2.65%), and significantly smaller than the median for the DP (2.23%). The SD of RDs for the DPwAC of 0.87% was considerably lower than for the SMD (6.45%), and for the DP without adaptive calibration (2.51%). The mean of RDs for the DPwAC (0.082%) was not significantly different from zero, which means that the systematic error was not present for the DPwAC.

conclusionsThe use of the adaptive calibration in DP to measure the areas at curved surface resulted in a significant increase of accuracy and precision, and removal of systematic error. The DPwAC revealed 4.4 times lower error and 7.4 times higher precision of area measurement at curved surfaces than the SMD.
