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

The study aims to identify histological classifiers from histopathological images of oral squamous cell carcinoma using convolutional neural network (CNN) deep learning models and shows how the results can improve diagnosis. Histopathological samples of oral squamous cell carcinoma were prepared by oral pathologists. Images were divided into tiles on a virtual slide, and labels (squamous cell carcinoma, normal, and others) were applied. VGG16 and ResNet50 with the optimizers stochastic gradient descent with momentum and spectral angle mapper (SAM) were used, with and without a learning rate scheduler. The conditions for achieving good CNN performances were identified by examining performance metrics. We used ROCAUC to statistically evaluate diagnostic performance improvement of six oral pathologists using the results from the selected CNN model for assisted diagnosis. VGG16 with SAM showed the best performance, with accuracy = 0.8622 and AUC = 0.9602. The diagnostic performances of the oral pathologists statistically significantly improved when the diagnostic results of the deep learning model were used as supplementary diagnoses (p-value = 0.031). By considering the learning results of deep learning model classifiers, the diagnostic accuracy of pathologists can be improved. This study contributes to the application of highly reliable deep learning models for oral pathological diagnosis.
