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

This research proposes augmenting cropped computed tomography (CT) slices with data attributes to enhance the performance of a deep-learning-based automatic left-femur segmentation scheme. The data attribute is the lying position for the left-femur model. In the study, the deep-learning-based automatic left-femur segmentation scheme was trained, validated, and tested using eight categories of CT input datasets for the left femur (F-I-F-VIII). The segmentation performance was assessed by Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) and intersection over union (IoU); and the similarity between the predicted 3D reconstruction images and ground-truth images was determined by spectral angle mapper (SAM) and structural similarity index measure (SSIM). The left-femur segmentation model achieved the highest DSC (88.25%) and IoU (80.85%) under category F-IV (using cropped and augmented CT input datasets with large feature coefficients), with an SAM and SSIM of 0.117-0.215 and 0.701-0.732. The novelty of this research lies in the use of attribute augmentation in medical image preprocessing to enhance the performance of the deep-learning-based automatic left-femur segmentation scheme.
