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

In recent years, numerous dermatological image databases have been published to make possible the development and validation of artificial intelligence-based technologies to support healthcare professionals in the diagnosis of skin diseases. However, the generation of these datasets confined to certain countries as well as the lack of demographic information accompanying the images, prevents having a real knowledge of in which populations these models could be used. Consequently, this hinders the translation of the models to the clinical setting. This has led the scientific community to encourage the detailed and transparent reporting of the databases used for artificial intelligence developments, as well as to promote the formation of genuinely international databases that can be representative of the world population. Through this work, we seek to provide details of the processing stages of the first public database of dermoscopy and clinical images created in a hospital in Argentina. The dataset comprises 1,616 images corresponding to 1,246 unique lesions collected from 623 patients.
