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
objectivesThis study aims to investigate the diagnostic application of an artificial intelligence (AI) computer-aided diagnostic system based on a convolutional neural network algorithm in detecting chronic apical periodontitis in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images.
methodsCBCT raw data of 55 single root chronic apical pe-riodontitis taken in 2nd Dental Center of Peking University School and Hospital from 49 patients from January 2017 to December 2021 were collected, and the chronic apical periodontitis areas were identified by experienced clinicians ma-nually and segmented layer by layer in Materialise Mimics Medical Software. Deep learning of lesion characterization was conducted via AI 3D U-Net, and the network segmentation results were compared manually with the test sets in terms of intersection over union (IOU), Dice coefficient, and pixel accuracy (PA).
resultsIn our deep learning algorithm, the IOU for all actual true lesions in test set samples was 92.18%, and the Dice coefficient and the PA index were 95.93% and 99.27%, respectively. Lesion segmentation and volume measurements performed by humans and AI systems showed excellent agreement.
conclusionsAI systems based on deep learning methods can be applied for detecting chronic apical periodontitis on CBCT images in clinical applications.
