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

This work aimed to automatically segment and classify the coronary arteries with either normal or anomalous origin from the aorta (AAOCA) using convolutional neural networks (CNNs), seeking to enhance and fasten clinician diagnosis. We implemented three single-view 2D Attention U-Nets with 3D view integration and trained them to automatically segment the aortic root and coronary arteries of 124 computed tomography angiographies (CTAs), with normal coronaries or AAOCA. Furthermore, we automatically classified the segmented geometries as normal or AAOCA using a decision tree model. For CTAs in the test set (n = 13), we obtained median Dice score coefficients of 0.95 and 0.84 for the aortic root and the coronary arteries, respectively. Moreover, the classification between normal and AAOCA showed excellent performance with accuracy, precision, and recall all equal to 1 in the test set. We developed a deep learning-based method to automatically segment and classify normal coronary and AAOCA. Our results represent a step towards an automatic screening and risk profiling of patients with AAOCA, based on CTA.
