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

Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) is one of the most important prognostic factors in gastric cancer as it indicates a higher likelihood of lymph node metastasis and poorer overall outcome for the patient. Despite its importance, the detection of LVI(+) in histopathology specimens of gastric cancer can be a challenging task for pathologists as invasion can be subtle and difficult to discern. Herein, we propose a deep learning-based LVI(+) detection method using H&E-stained whole-slide images. The ConViT model showed the best performance in terms of both AUROC and AURPC among the classification models (AUROC: 0.9796; AUPRC: 0.9648). The AUROC and AUPRC of YOLOX computed based on the augmented patch-level confidence score were slightly lower (AUROC: -0.0094; AUPRC: -0.0225) than those of the ConViT classification model. With weighted averaging of the patch-level confidence scores, the ensemble model exhibited the best AUROC, AUPRC, and F1 scores of 0.9880, 0.9769, and 0.9280, respectively. The proposed model is expected to contribute to precision medicine by potentially saving examination-related time and labor and reducing disagreements among pathologists.
