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

Lung nodules are the main lesions of the lung, and conditions of the lung can be directly displayed through CT images. Due to the limited pixel number of lung nodules in the lung, doctors have the risk of missed detection and false detection in the detection process. In order to reduce doctors' work intensity and assist doctors to make accurate diagnosis, a lung nodule segmentation and recognition algorithm is proposed by simulating doctors' diagnosis process with computer intelligent methods. Firstly, the attention mechanism model is established to focus on the region of lung parenchyma. Then, a pyramid network of bidirectional enhancement features is established from multiple body positions to extract lung nodules. Finally, the morphological and imaging features of lung nodules are calculated, and then, the signs of lung nodules can be identified. The experiments show that the algorithm conforms to the doctor's diagnosis process, focuses the region of interest step by step, and achieves good results in lung nodule segmentation and recognition.
