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

Recently, breast types were categorized into four types based on the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) atlas, and evaluating them is vital in clinical practice. A Japanese guideline, called breast composition, was developed for the breast types based on BI-RADS. The guideline is characterized using a continuous value called the mammary gland content ratio calculated to determine the breast composition, therefore allowing a more objective and visual evaluation. Although a discriminative deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) has been developed conventionally to classify the breast composition, it could encounter two-step errors or more. Hence, we propose an alternative regression DCNN based on mammary gland content ratio. We used 1476 images, evaluated by an expert physician. Our regression DCNN contained four convolution layers and three fully connected layers. Consequently, we obtained a high correlation of 0.93 (
