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

purposeTo develop and evaluate a complete deep learning pipeline that allows fully automated end-diastolic left ventricle (LV) cardiac MRI segmentation, including trabeculations and automatic quality control of the predicted segmentation. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis multicenter retrospective study includes training, validation, and testing datasets of 272, 27, and 150 cardiac MR images, respectively, collected between 2012 and 2018. The reference standard was the manual segmentation of four LV anatomic structures performed on end-diastolic short-axis cine cardiac MRI: LV trabeculations, LV myocardium, LV papillary muscles, and the LV blood cavity. The automatic pipeline was composed of five steps with a DenseNet architecture. Intraobserver agreement, interobserver agreement, and interaction time were recorded. The analysis includes the correlation between the manual and automated segmentation, a reproducibility comparison, and Bland-Altman plots.

resultsThe automated method achieved mean Dice coefficients of 0.96 ± 0.01 (standard deviation) for LV blood cavity, 0.89 ± 0.03 for LV myocardium, and 0.62 ± 0.08 for LV trabeculation (mean absolute error, 3.63 g ± 3.4). Automatic quantification of LV end-diastolic volume, LV myocardium mass, LV trabeculation, and trabeculation mass-to-total myocardial mass (TMM) ratio showed a significant correlation with the manual measures (

conclusionAutomated deep learning framework can achieve reproducible and quality-controlled segmentation of cardiac trabeculations, outperforming inter- and intraobserver analyses.
