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

Brain tumor segmentation from Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) is considered a big challenge due to the complexity of brain tumor tissues, and segmenting these tissues from the healthy tissues is an even more tedious challenge when manual segmentation is undertaken by radiologists. In this paper, we have presented an experimental approach to emphasize the impact and effectiveness of deep learning elements like optimizers and loss functions towards a deep learning optimal solution for brain tumor segmentation. We evaluated our performance results on the most popular brain tumor datasets (MICCAI BraTS 2020 and RSNA-ASNR-MICCAI BraTS 2021). Furthermore, a new Bridged U-Net-ASPP-EVO was introduced that exploits Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling to enhance capturing multi-scale information to help in segmenting different tumor sizes, Evolving Normalization layers, squeeze and excitation residual blocks, and the max-average pooling for down sampling. Two variants of this architecture were constructed (Bridged U-Net_ASPP_EVO v1 and Bridged U-Net_ASPP_EVO v2). The best results were achieved using these two models when compared with other state-of-the-art models; we have achieved average segmentation dice scores of 0.84, 0.85, and 0.91 from variant1, and 0.83, 0.86, and 0.92 from v2 for the Enhanced Tumor (ET), Tumor Core (TC), and Whole Tumor (WT) tumor sub-regions, respectively, in the BraTS 2021validation dataset.
