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

To overcome the increasing burden on pathologists in diagnosing gastric biopsies, we developed an artificial intelligence-based system for the pathological diagnosis of gastric biopsies (AI-G), which is expected to work well in daily clinical practice in multiple institutes. The multistage semantic segmentation for pathology (MSP) method utilizes the distribution of feature values extracted from patches of whole-slide images (WSI) like pathologists' "low-power view" information of microscopy. The training dataset included WSIs of 4511 gastric biopsy tissues from 984 patients. In tissue-level validation, MSP AI-G showed better accuracy (91.0%) than that of conventional patch-based AI-G (PB AI-G) (89.8%). Importantly, MSP AI-G unanimously achieved higher accuracy rates (0.946 ± 0.023) than PB AI-G (0.861 ± 0.078) in tissue-level analysis, when applied to the cohorts of 10 different institutes (3450 samples of 1772 patients in all institutes, 198-555 samples of 143-206 patients in each institute). MSP AI-G had high diagnostic accuracy and robustness in multi-institutions. When pathologists selectively review specimens in which pathologist's diagnosis and AI prediction are discordant, the requirement of a secondary review process is significantly less compared with reviewing all specimens by another pathologist.
