Digital Histopathological Discrimination of Label-Free Tumoral Tissues by Artificial Intelligence Phase-Imaging Microscopy.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Histopathology is the gold standard for disease diagnosis. The use of digital histology on fresh samples can reduce processing time and potential image artifacts, as label-free samples do not need to be fixed nor stained. This fact allows for a faster diagnosis, increasing the speed of the process and the impact on patient prognosis. This work proposes, implements, and validates a novel digital diagnosis procedure of fresh label-free histological samples. The procedure is based on advanced phase-imaging microscopy parameters and artificial intelligence. Fresh human histological samples of healthy and tumoral liver, kidney, ganglion, testicle and brain were collected and imaged with phase-imaging microscopy. Advanced phase parameters were calculated from the images. The statistical significance of each parameter for each tissue type was evaluated at different magnifications of 10×, 20× and 40×. Several classification algorithms based on artificial intelligence were applied and evaluated. Artificial Neural Network and Decision Tree approaches provided the best general sensibility and specificity results, with values over 90% for the majority of biological tissues at some magnifications. These results show the potential to provide a label-free automatic significant diagnosis of fresh histological samples with advanced parameters of phase-imaging microscopy. This approach can complement the present clinical procedures.
