Application of A U-Net for Map-like Segmentation and Classification of Discontinuous Fibrosis Distribution in Gd-EOB-DTPA-Enhanced Liver MRI.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
We aimed to evaluate whether U-shaped convolutional neuronal networks can be used to segment liver parenchyma and indicate the degree of liver fibrosis/cirrhosis at the voxel level using contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. This retrospective study included 112 examinations with histologically determined liver fibrosis/cirrhosis grade (Ishak score) as the ground truth. The T1-weighted volume-interpolated breath-hold examination sequences of native, arterial, late arterial, portal venous, and hepatobiliary phases were semi-automatically segmented and co-registered. The segmentations were assigned the corresponding Ishak score. In a nested cross-validation procedure, five models of a convolutional neural network with U-Net architecture (nnU-Net) were trained, with the dataset being divided into stratified training/validation (
