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

backgroundSegmentation of the ulna and radius is a crucial step for the measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) in dual-energy X-ray imaging in patients suspected of having osteoporosis. PURPOSE: This work aimed to propose a deep learning approach for the accurate automatic segmentation of the ulna and radius in dual-energy X-ray imaging. METHODS AND MATERIALS: We developed a deep learning model with residual block (Resblock) for the segmentation of the ulna and radius. Three hundred and sixty subjects were included in the study, and five-fold cross-validation was used to evaluate the performance of the proposed network. The Dice coefficient and Jaccard index were calculated to evaluate the results of segmentation in this study.

resultsThe proposed network model had a better segmentation performance than the previous deep learning-based methods with respect to the automatic segmentation of the ulna and radius. The evaluation results suggested that the average Dice coefficients of the ulna and radius were 0.9835 and 0.9874, with average Jaccard indexes of 0.9680 and 0.9751, respectively.

conclusionThe deep learning-based method developed in this study improved the segmentation performance of the ulna and radius in dual-energy X-ray imaging.
