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

purposeScreening programs use mammography as a diagnostic tool for the early detection of breast cancer. Mammogram enhancement is used to increase the local contrast of the mammogram so that the lesions are more visible in the advanced image. For accurate diagnosis in the early stage of breast cancer, the appearance of masses and microcalcification on the mammographic image are two important indicators. The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of the automatic separation of images of breast tissue microcalcifications and also to evaluate its accuracy.

methodsThe research was carried out by using two techniques of image enhancement and highlighting of breast tissue microcalcifications for the desired areas by regional ROI based on fuzzy system and also Gabor filtering method. After determining the clusters of breast tissue microcalcifications, the clusters are classified using the decision tree classification algorithm. Then, for segmentation, samples suspected of microcalcification are highlighted and masked, and in the last stage, tissue characteristics are extracted. Subsequently, with the help of an artificial neural network (ANN), determining the benign and malignant types of segmented ROI clusters was accomplished. The proposed system is trained with a Digital Database for Screening Mammography (DDSM) developed by the University of South Florida, USA, and the simulations are performed under MATLAB software and the results are compared with previous work.

resultsThe results of this training performed under this work show an accuracy of 93% and an improvement of sensitivity above 95%.

conclusionThe result indicates that the proposed approach can be applied to ensure breast cancer diagnosis.
