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

In this paper, a novel deep learning-based medical imaging analysis framework is developed, which aims to deal with the insufficient feature learning caused by the imperfect property of imaging data. Named as multi-scale efficient network (MEN), the proposed method integrates different attention mechanisms to realize sufficient extraction of both detailed features and semantic information in a progressive learning manner. In particular, a fused-attention block is designed to extract fine-grained details from the input, where the squeeze-excitation (SE) attention mechanism is applied to make the model focus on potential lesion areas. A multi-scale low information loss (MSLIL)-attention block is proposed to compensate for potential global information loss and enhance the semantic correlations among features, where the efficient channel attention (ECA) mechanism is adopted. The proposed MEN is comprehensively evaluated on two COVID-19 diagnostic tasks, and the results show that as compared with some other advanced deep learning models, the proposed method is competitive in accurate COVID-19 recognition, which yields the best accuracy of 98.68% and 98.85%, respectively, and exhibits satisfactory generalization ability as well.
