Quantitative assessment of pneumothorax by using Shannon entropy of lung ultrasound M-mode image and diaphragmatic excursion based on automated measurement.

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
Background: Lung ultrasound (LUS) and diaphragm ultrasound (DUS) are the appropriate modalities for conservative observation to those patients who are with stable pneumothorax, as well as for the timely detection of life-threatening pneumothorax at any location, due to they are portable, real-time, relatively cost effective, and most important, without radiation exposure. The absence of lung sliding on LUS M-mode images and the abnormality of diaphragmatic excursion (DE) on DUS M-mode images are the most common and novel diagnostic criteria for pneumothorax, respectively. However, visual inspection of M-mode images remains subjective and quantitative analysis of LUS and DUS M-mode images are required. Methods: Shannon entropy of LUS M-mode image (ShanEn Results: ShanEn Conclusions: Our findings imply that the combination of ShanEn
