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

The fast pandemics of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has led to a devastating influence on global public health. In order to treat the disease, medical imaging emerges as a useful tool for diagnosis. However, the computed tomography (CT) diagnosis of COVID-19 requires experts' extensive clinical experience. Therefore, it is essential to achieve rapid and accurate segmentation and detection of COVID-19. This paper proposes a simple yet efficient and general-purpose network, called Sequential Region Generation Network (SRGNet), to jointly detect and segment the lesion areas of COVID-19. SRGNet can make full use of the supervised segmentation information and then outputs multi-scale segmentation predictions. Through this, high-quality lesion-areas suggestions can be generated on the predicted segmentation maps, reducing the diagnosis cost. Simultaneously, the detection results conversely refine the segmentation map by a post-processing procedure, which significantly improves the segmentation accuracy. The superiorities of our SRGNet over the state-of-the-art methods are validated through extensive experiments on the built COVID-19 database.
