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

In order to provide theoretical support for clinical diagnosis, the diagnostic value of the optimized fuzzy C-means (FCM) algorithm combined with coronal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan was investigated in the diagnosis of tracheal foreign bodies in children. The anisotropic filtering was applied to optimize the traditional FCM algorithm, so as to construct a new MRI image segmentation algorithm, namely, AFFCM algorithm. Then, the traditional FCM algorithm, the FCM algorithm based on the kernel function (KFCM), and the FCM algorithm based on the spatial neighborhood information (RFCM) were introduced for comparison with the AFFCM. 28 children diagnosed with foreign bodies in the trachea were selected for MRI diagnosis, and AFFCM was used for segmentation. The partition coefficient, segmentation entropy, and the correlation degree between classes after fuzzy division of the four algorithms were recorded, and the location and distribution of foreign bodies in the trachea and the types of foreign bodies were also collected. Besides, the MRI scanning and chest X-rays of the children with foreign bodies in the trachea should also be recorded in terms of the positive rate, diagnosis rate, and indirect signs. The class division coefficient and interclass correlation degree after fuzzy division of AFFCM were markedly greater than those of FCM, KFCM, and RFCM (
