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

In living-donor liver transplantation, the safety of the donor is critical. In addition, accurately measuring the liver volume is significant as the amount that can be resected from living donors is limited. In this paper, we propose an automated segmentation and volume estimation method for the liver in computed tomography imaging based on a deep learning-based segmentation network. Our framework was trained using the data of 191 donors, achieved a dice similarity coefficient of 0.789, 0.869, 0.955, and 0.899, respectively, in the segmentation task for the left lobe, right lobe, caudate lobe, and whole liver. Moreover, the R^2 score reached 0.980, 0.996, 0.953, and 0.996 in the volume estimation task. We demonstrate that our approach provides accurate and quantitative liver segmentation results, reducing the error in liver volume estimation. Therefore, we expected to be used as an aid in estimating liver volume from CT volume data for living-donor liver transplantation.
