Histology Image Viewer and Converter (HIVC): A High-Speed Freeware Software to View and Convert Whole Slide Histology Images.
Article in Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering. Imaging & visualization, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Histology images are widely used to assess the microstructure of biological tissues, but scanners often save images in bulky SVS and multi-layered TIFF formats. These formats were designed to archive image blocks and high-resolution textual information and are not compatible with conventional image analysis software. Our goal was to create a freeware Histology Image Viewer and Converter (HIVC) with a graphical user interface that allows viewing and converting whole-slide images in batch. HIVC was developed using C# Language for Windows x64 operating system. HIVC's performance was assessed by converting 20 whole-slide images to a JPG format at 20x and 40x resolution and comparing the results to ImageJ, Cell Profiler, QuPath, Nanoborb, and Aperio ImageScope. HIVC was more than 8-times faster in converting images than other software packages. This software allows high-speed batch conversion of histology images to traditional formats, permitting platform-independent secondary analyses.
