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

Analysis of pollen material obtained from the Hirst-type apparatus, which is a tedious and labor-intensive process, is usually performed by hand under a microscope by specialists in palynology. This research evaluated the automatic analysis of pollen material performed based on digital microscopic photos. A deep neural network called YOLO was used to analyze microscopic images containing the reference grains of three taxa typical of Central and Eastern Europe. YOLO networks perform recognition and detection; hence, there is no need to segment the image before classification. The obtained results were compared to other deep learning object detection methods, i.e., Faster R-CNN and RetinaNet. YOLO outperformed the other methods, as it gave the mean average precision (mAP@.5:.95) between 86.8% and 92.4% for the test sets included in the study. Among the difficulties related to the correct classification of the research material, the following should be noted: significant similarities of the grains of the analyzed taxa, the possibility of their simultaneous occurrence in one image, and mutual overlapping of objects.
