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

backgroundThe electroencephalography (EEG) signal carries important information about the electrical activity of the brain, which may reveal many pathologies. This information is carried in certain waveforms and events, one of which is the K-complex. It is used by neurologists to diagnose neurophysiologic and cognitive disorders as well as sleep studies. Existing detection methods largely depend on tedious, time-consuming, and error-prone manual inspection of the EEG waveform.

methodsIn this paper, a highly accurate K-complex detection system is developed. Based on multiple convolutional neural network (CNN) feature extraction backbones and EEG waveform images, a regions with faster regions with convolutional neural networks (Faster R-CNN) detector was designed, trained, and tested. Extensive performance evaluation was performed using four deep transfer learning feature extraction models (AlexNet, ResNet-101, VGG19 and Inceptionv3). The dataset was comprised of 10948 images of EEG waveforms, with the location of the K-complexes included as separate text files containing the bounding boxes information.

resultsThe Inceptionv3 and VGG19-based detectors performed consistently high (i.e., up to 99.8% precision and 0.2% miss rate) over different testing scenarios, in which the number of training images was varied from 60% to 80% and the positive overlap threshold was increased from 60% to 90%.

conclusionsOur automated method appears to be a highly accurate automatic K-complex detection in real-time that can aid practitioners in speedy EEG inspection.
