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

Psoriasis is a skin disease that causes lesions of various sizes across the body and can persist for years with cyclic deterioration and improvement. During treatment, and a multiple-severity disease, with irregular severity within the observation area may be found. The current psoriasis evaluation is based on the subjective evaluation criteria of the clinician using the psoriasis area and severity index (PASI). We proposed a novel psoriasis evaluation method that detects representative regions as evaluation criteria, and extracts severity features to improve the evaluation performance of various types of psoriasis, including multiple-severity diseases. We generated multiple-severity disease images using CutMix and proposed a hierarchical multi-scale deformable attention module (MS-DAM) that can adaptively detect representative regions of irregular and complex patterns in multiple-severity disease analyses. EfficientNet B1 with MS-DAM exhibited the best classification performance with an F1-score of 0.93. Compared with the performance of the six existing self-attention methods, the proposed MS-DAM showed more than 5% higher accuracy than that of multiscale channel attention module (MS-CAM). Using the gradient-weighted activation mapping method, we confirmed that the proposed method works at par with human visual perception. We performed a more objective, effective, and accurate analysis of psoriasis severity using the proposed method.
