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

Computed tomography (CT) has been widely used to diagnose Graves' orbitopathy, and the utility is gradually increasing. To develop a neural network (NN)-based method for diagnosis and severity assessment of Graves' orbitopathy (GO) using orbital CT, a specific type of NN optimized for diagnosing GO was developed and trained using 288 orbital CT scans obtained from patients with mild and moderate-to-severe GO and normal controls. The developed NN was compared with three conventional NNs [GoogleNet Inception v1 (GoogLeNet), 50-layer Deep Residual Learning (ResNet-50), and 16-layer Very Deep Convolutional Network from Visual Geometry group (VGG-16)]. The diagnostic performance was also compared with that of three oculoplastic specialists. The developed NN had an area under receiver operating curve (AUC) of 0.979 for diagnosing patients with moderate-to-severe GO. Receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis yielded AUCs of 0.827 for GoogLeNet, 0.611 for ResNet-50, 0.540 for VGG-16, and 0.975 for the oculoplastic specialists for diagnosing moderate-to-severe GO. For the diagnosis of mild GO, the developed NN yielded an AUC of 0.895, which is better than the performances of the other NNs and oculoplastic specialists. This study may contribute to NN-based interpretation of orbital CTs for diagnosing various orbital diseases.
