A Basic Study for Predicting Dysphagia in Panoramic X-ray Images Using Artificial Intelligence (AI)-Part 1: Determining Evaluation Factors and Cutoff Levels.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
backgroundDysphagia relates to quality of life; this disorder is related to the difficulties of dental treatment. PURPOSE: To detect radiographic signs of dysphagia by using panoramic radiograph with an AI system.
methodsSeventy-seven patients who underwent a panoramic radiograph and a videofluorographic swallowing study were analyzed. Age, gender, the number of remaining teeth, the distance between the tongue and the palate, the vertical and horizontal hyoid bone position, and the width of the tongue were analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was used. For the statistically significant factors, the cutoff level was determined. The cutoff level was determined by using analysis of the receiver operations characteristic (ROC) curve and the Youden Index.
resultsA significant relationship with presence of dysphagia was only observed for the vertical hyoid bone position. The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.72. The cutoff level decided for the hyoid bone was observed to be lower than the mandibular border line.
conclusionsIn cases where the hyoid bone is lower than the mandibular border line on a panoramic radiograph, it suggests the risk of dysphagia would be high. We will create an AI model for the detection of the risk of dysphagia by using the assessment of vertical hyoid bone position.
