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 this work, a novel multimodal learning approach for early prediction of birth weight is presented. Fetal weight is one of the most relevant indicators in the assessment of fetal health status. The aim is to predict early birth weight using multimodal maternal-fetal variables from the first trimester of gestation (Anthropometric data, as well as metrics obtained from Fetal Biometry, Doppler and Maternal Ultrasound). The proposed methodology starts with the optimal selection of a subset of multimodal features using an ensemble-based approach of feature selectors. Subsequently, the selected variables feed the nonparametric Multiple Kernel Learning regression algorithm. At this stage, a set of kernels is selected and weighted to maximize performance in birth weight prediction. The proposed methodology is validated and compared with other computational learning algorithms reported in the state of the art. The obtained results (absolute error of 234 g) suggest that the proposed methodology can be useful as a tool for the early evaluation and monitoring of fetal health status through indicators such as birth weight.
