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

Medical image captioning models generate text to describe the semantic contents of an image, aiding the non-experts in understanding and interpretation. We propose a weakly-supervised approach to improve the performance of image captioning models on small image-text datasets by leveraging a large anatomically-labelled image classification dataset. Our method generates pseudo-captions (weak labels) for caption-less but anatomically-labelled (class-labelled) images using an encoder-decoder sequence-to-sequence model. The augmented dataset is used to train an image-captioning model in a weakly supervised learning manner. For fetal ultrasound, we demonstrate that the proposed augmentation approach outperforms the baseline on semantics and syntax-based metrics, with nearly twice as much improvement in value on
