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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer death globally. Early detection and removal of precancerous polyps can significantly reduce the chance of CRC patient death. Currently, the polyp detection rate mainly depends on the skill and expertise of gastroenterologists. Over time, unidentified polyps can develop into cancer. Machine learning has recently emerged as a powerful method in assisting clinical diagnosis. Several classification models have been proposed to identify polyps, but their performance has not been comparable to an expert endoscopist yet. Here, we propose a multiple classifier consultation strategy to create an effective and powerful classifier for polyp identification. This strategy benefits from recent findings that different classification models can better learn and extract various information within the image. Therefore, our Ensemble classifier can derive a more consequential decision than each individual classifier. The extracted combined information inherits the ResNet's advantage of residual connection, while it also extracts objects when covered by occlusions through depth-wise separable convolution layer of the Xception model. Here, we applied our strategy to still frames extracted from a colonoscopy video. It outperformed other state-of-the-art techniques with a performance measure greater than 95% in each of the algorithm parameters. Our method will help researchers and gastroenterologists develop clinically applicable, computational-guided tools for colonoscopy screening. It may be extended to other clinical diagnoses that rely on image.
