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

Background: Routine clinical factors play an important role in the clinical diagnosis of focal liver lesions (FLLs); however, they are rarely used in computer-assisted diagnosis. Therefore, we developed a deep learning (DL) radiomics model, and investigated its effectiveness in diagnosing FLLs using long-range contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) cines and clinical factors. Methods: Herein, 303 patients with pathologically confirmed FLLs after surgery at three hospitals were retrospectively enrolled and divided into a training cohort (n=203), internal validation (IV) cohort (n=50) from one hospital with the ratio of 4:1, and external validation (EV) cohort (n=50) from the other two hospitals. Four DL radiomics models, namely Four Stream 3D convolutional neural network (FS3D Results: FS3D Conclusions: The proposed DL radiomics demonstrated excellent performance on the benign and malignant diagnosis of FLLs by combining CEUS cines and clinical factors. It could help the individualized characterization of FLLs, and enhance the accuracy of diagnosis in the future.
