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

Recently, the destructive impact of Coronavirus 2019, commonly known as COVID-19, has affected public health and human lives. This catastrophic effect disrupted human experience by introducing an exponentially more damaging unpredictable health crisis since the Second World War (Kursumovic et al. in Anaesthesia 75: 989-992, 2020). Strong communicable characteristics of COVID-19 within human communities make the world's crisis a severe pandemic. Due to the unavailable vaccine of COVID-19 to control rather than cure, early and accurate detection of the virus can be a promising technique for tracking and preventing the infection from spreading (e.g., by isolating the patients). This situation indicates improving the auxiliary COVID-19 detection technique. Computed tomography (CT) imaging is a widely used technique for pneumonia because of its expected availability. The artificial intelligence-aided images analysis might be a promising alternative for identifying COVID-19. This paper presents a promising technique of predicting COVID-19 patients from the CT image using convolutional neural networks (CNN). The novel approach is based on the most recent modified CNN architecture (DenseNet-121) to predict COVID-19. The results outperformed 92% accuracy, with a 95% recall showing acceptable performance for the prediction of COVID-19.
