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

Modern deep learning schemes have shown human-level performance in the area of medical science. However, the implementation of deep learning algorithms on dedicated hardware remains a challenging task because modern algorithms and neuronal activation functions are generally not hardware-friendly and require a lot of resources. Recently, researchers have come up with some hardware-friendly activation functions that can yield high throughput and high accuracy at the same time. In this context, we propose a hardware-based neural network that can predict the presence of cancer in humans with 98.23% accuracy. This is done by making use of cost-efficient, highly accurate activation functions, Sqish and LogSQNL. Due to its inherently parallel components, the system can classify a given sample in just one clock cycle,
