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

objectiveThe objective of this study is to predict in vivo lung mass density for patients with interstitial lung disease using different gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT) algorithms based on measurements from lung ultrasound surface wave elastography (LUSWE) and pulmonary function testing (PFT).

methodsAge and weight of study subjects (57 patients with interstitial lung disease and 20 healthy subjects), surface wave speeds at three vibration frequencies (100, 150, and 200 Hz) from LUSWE, and predicted forced expiratory volume (FEV1% pre) and ratio of forced expiratory volume to forced vital capacity (FEV1%/FVC%) from PFT were used as inputs while lung mass densities based on the Hounsfield Unit from high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) were used as labels to train the regressor in three GBDT algorithms, XGBoost, CatBoost, and LightGBM. 80% (20%) of the dataset was used for training (testing).

resultsThe results showed that predictions using XGBoost regressor obtained an accuracy of 0.98 in the test dataset.

conclusionThe obtained results suggest that XGBoost regressor based on the measurements from LUSWE and PFT may be able to noninvasively assess lung mass density in vivo for patients with pulmonary disease.
