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

Deep learning offers the potential to extract more than meets the eye from images captured by imaging flow cytometry. This protocol describes the application of deep learning to single-cell images to perform supervised cell classification and weakly supervised learning, using example data from an experiment exploring red blood cell morphology. We describe how to acquire and transform suitable input data as well as the steps required for deep learning training and inference using an open-source web-based application. All steps of the protocol are provided as open-source Python as well as MATLAB runtime scripts, through both command-line and graphic user interfaces. The protocol enables a flexible and friendly environment for morphological phenotyping using supervised and weakly supervised learning and the subsequent exploration of the deep learning features using multi-dimensional visualization tools. The protocol requires 40 h when training from scratch and 1 h when using a pre-trained model.
