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

Introduction: Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) is an endoscopic visualization technique useful for upper aero-digestive tract (UADT) cancer detection and margins evaluation. However, NBI analysis is strongly operator-dependent and requires high expertise, thus limiting its wider implementation. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) has demonstrated potential for applications in UADT videoendoscopy. Among AI methods, deep learning algorithms, and especially convolutional neural networks (CNNs), are particularly suitable for delineating cancers on videoendoscopy. This study is aimed to develop a CNN for automatic semantic segmentation of UADT cancer on endoscopic images. Materials and Methods: A dataset of white light and NBI videoframes of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) was collected and manually annotated. A novel DL segmentation model ( Results: 219 LSCC patients were retrospectively included in the study. A total of 683 videoframes composed the LSCC dataset, while the external validation cohorts of OPSCC and OCSCC contained 116 and 102 images. On the LSCC dataset, Conclusion:
