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

Refined hybrid convolutional neural networks are proposed in this work for classifying brain tumor classes based on MRI scans. A dataset of 2880 T1-weighted contrast-enhanced MRI brain scans are used. The dataset contains three main classes of brain tumors: gliomas, meningiomas, and pituitary tumors, as well as a class of no tumors. Firstly, two pre-trained, fine-tuned convolutional neural networks, GoogleNet and AlexNet, were used for classification process, with validation and classification accuracy being 91.5% and 90.21%, respectively. Then, to improving the performance of the fine-tuning AlexNet, two hybrid networks (AlexNet-SVM and AlexNet-KNN) were applied. These hybrid networks achieved 96.9% and 98.6% validation and accuracy, respectively. Thus, the hybrid network AlexNet-KNN was shown to be able to apply the classification process of the present data with high accuracy. After exporting these networks, a selected dataset was employed for testing process, yielding accuracies of 88%, 85%, 95%, and 97% for the fine-tuned GoogleNet, the fine-tuned AlexNet, AlexNet-SVM, and AlexNet-KNN, respectively. The proposed system would help for automatic detection and classification of the brain tumor from the MRI scans and safe the time for the clinical diagnosis.
