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

Breast ultrasound examination is a routine, fast, and safe method for clinical diagnosis of breast tumors. In this paper, a classification method based on multi-features and support vector machines was proposed for breast tumor diagnosis. Multi-features are composed of characteristic features and deep learning features of breast tumor images. Initially, an improved level set algorithm was used to segment the lesion in breast ultrasound images, which provided an accurate calculation of characteristic features, such as orientation, edge indistinctness, characteristics of posterior shadowing region, and shape complexity. Simultaneously, we used transfer learning to construct a pretrained model as a feature extractor to extract the deep learning features of breast ultrasound images. Finally, the multi-features were fused and fed to support vector machine for the further classification of breast ultrasound images. The proposed model, when tested on unknown samples, provided a classification accuracy of 92.5% for cancerous and noncancerous tumors.
