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

This study investigated the usefulness of the montage method that combines four different magnetic resonance images into one images for automatic acute ischemic stroke (AIS) diagnosis with deep learning method. The montage image was consisted from diffusion weighted image (DWI), fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR), arterial spin labeling (ASL), and apparent diffusion coefficient (ASL). The montage method was compared with pseudo color map (pCM) which was consisted from FLAIR, ASL and ADC. 473 AIS patients were classified into four categories: mechanical thrombectomy, conservative therapy, hemorrhage, and other diseases. The results showed that the montage image significantly outperformed pCM in terms of accuracy (montage image = 0.76 ± 0.01, pCM = 0.54 ± 0.05) and the area under the curve (AUC) (montage image = 0.94 ± 0.01, pCM = 0.76 ± 0.01). This study demonstrates the usefulness of the montage method and its potential for overcoming the limitations of pCM.
