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

Deep learning has substantially improved the state-of-the-art in object detection and image classification. Deep learning usually requires large-scale labelled datasets to train the models; however, due to the restrictions in medical data sharing and accessibility and the expensive labelling cost, the application of deep learning in medical image classification has been dramatically hindered. In this study, we propose a novel method that leverages semi-supervised adversarial learning and pseudo-labelling to incorporate the unlabelled images in model learning. We validate the proposed method on two public databases, including ChestX-ray14 for lung disease classification and BreakHis for breast cancer histopathological image diagnosis. The results show that our method achieved highly effective performance with an accuracy of 93.15% while using only 30% of the labelled samples, which is comparable to the state-of-the-art accuracy for chest X-ray classification; it also outperformed the current methods in multi-class breast cancer histopathological image classification with a high accuracy of 96.87%.
