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

backgroundOral cancer is a life-threatening malignancy, which affects the survival rate and quality of life of patients. The aim of this systematic review was to review deep learning (DL) studies in the diagnosis and prognostic prediction of oral cancer.

methodsThis systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines. Databases (Medline via PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus) were searched for relevant studies, from January 2000 to June 2023.

resultsFifty-four qualified for inclusion, including diagnostic (n = 51), and prognostic prediction (n = 3). Thirteen studies showed a low risk of biases in all domains, and 40 studies low risk for concerns regarding applicability. The performance of DL models was reported of the accuracy of 85.0-100%, F1-score of 79.31 - 89.0%, Dice coefficient index of 76.0 - 96.3% and Concordance index of 0.78-0.95 for classification, object detection, segmentation, and prognostic prediction, respectively. The pooled diagnostic odds ratios were 2549.08 (95% CI 410.77-4687.39) for classification studies.

conclusionsThe number of DL studies in oral cancer is increasing, with a diverse type of architectures. The reported accuracy showed promising DL performance in studies of oral cancer and appeared to have potential utility in improving informed clinical decision-making of oral cancer.
