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

Background: According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, a Qi-deficiency constitution is characterized by a lower voice frequency, shortness of breath, reluctance to speak, an introverted personality, emotional instability, and timidity. People with Qi-deficiency constitution are prone to repeated colds and have a higher probability of chronic diseases and depression. However, a person with a Balanced constitution is relatively healthy in all physical and psychological aspects. At present, the determination of whether one has a Qi-deficiency constitution or a Balanced constitution are mostly based on a scale, which is easily affected by subjective factors. As an objective method of diagnosis, the human voice is worthy of research. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to improve the objectivity of determining Qi-deficiency constitution and Balanced constitution through one's voice and to explore the feasibility of deep learning in TCM constitution recognition. Methods: The voices of 48 subjects were collected, and the constitution classification results were obtained from the classification and determination of TCM constitutions. Then, the constitution was classified according to the ResNet residual neural network model. Results: A total of 720 voice data points were collected from 48 subjects. The classification accuracy rate of the Qi-deficiency constitution and Balanced constitution was 81.5% according to ResNet. The loss values of the model training and test sets gradually decreased to 0, while the ACC values of the training and test sets tended to increase, and the ACC values of the training set approached 1. The ROC curve shows an AUC value of 0.85. Conclusion: The Qi-deficiency constitution and Balanced constitution determination method based on the ResNet residual neural network model proposed in this study can improve the efficiency of constitution recognition and provide decision support for clinical practice.
