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

The high mortality rate in Tuberculosis (TB) burden regions has increased significantly in the last decades. Despite the possibility of treatment for TB, high burden regions still suffer inadequate screening tools, which result in diagnostic delay and misdiagnosis. These challenges have led to the development of Computer-Aided Diagnostic (CAD) system to detect TB automatically. There are several ways of screening for TB, but Chest X-Ray (CXR) is more prominent and recommended due to its high sensitivity in detecting lung abnormalities. This paper presents the results of a systematic review based on PRISMA procedures that investigate state-of-the-art Deep Learning techniques for screening pulmonary abnormalities related to TB. The systematic review was conducted using an extensive selection of scientific databases as reference sources that grant access to distinctive articles in the field. Four scientific databases were searched to retrieve related articles. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were defined and applied to each article to determine those included in the study. Out of the 489 articles retrieved, 62 were included. Based on the findings in this review, we conclude that CAD systems are promising in tackling the challenges of the TB epidemic and made recommendations for improvement in future studies.
