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

Polyp detection through colonoscopy is a widely used method to prevent colorectal cancer. The automation of this process aided by artificial intelligence allows faster and improved detection of polyps that can be missed during a standard colonoscopy. In this work, we propose to implement various object detection algorithms for polyp detection. To improve the mean average precision (mAP) of the detection, we combine the baseline models through a stacking approach. The experiments demonstrate the potential of this new methodology, which can reduce the workload for oncologists and increase the precision of the localization of polyps. Our proposal achieves a mAP of 0.86, translated into an improvement of 34.9% compared to the best baseline model and 28.8% with respect to the weighted boxes fusion ensemble technique.
