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 objective of this study was to automatically classify surgical plans for maxillary sinus floor augmentation in implant placement at the maxillary posterior edentulous region using a 3D distance-guided network on CBCT images. We applied a modified ABC classification method consisting of five surgical approaches for the deep learning model. The proposed deep learning model (SinusC-Net) consisted of two stages of detection and classification according to the modified classification method. In detection, five landmarks on CBCT images were automatically detected using a volumetric regression network; in classification, the CBCT images were automatically classified as to the five surgical approaches using a 3D distance-guided network. The mean MRE for landmark detection was 0.87 mm, and SDR for 2 mm or lower, 95.47%. The mean accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and AUC for classification by the SinusC-Net were 0.97, 0.92, 0.98, and 0.95, respectively. The deep learning model using 3D distance-guidance demonstrated accurate detection of 3D anatomical landmarks, and automatic and accurate classification of surgical approaches for sinus floor augmentation in implant placement at the maxillary posterior edentulous region.
