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

To investigate the ability of an auxiliary diagnostic model based on the YOLO-v7-based model in the classification of cervical lymphadenopathy images and compare its performance against qualitative visual evaluation by experienced radiologists. Three types of lymph nodes were sampled randomly but not uniformly. The dataset was randomly divided into for training, validation, and testing. The model was constructed with PyTorch. It was trained and weighting parameters were tuned on the validation set. Diagnostic performance was compared with that of the radiologists on the testing set. The mAP of the model was 96.4% at the 50% intersection-over-union threshold. The accuracy values of it were 0.962 for benign lymph nodes, 0.982 for lymphomas, and 0.960 for metastatic lymph nodes. The precision values of it were 0.928 for benign lymph nodes, 0.975 for lymphomas, and 0.927 for metastatic lymph nodes. The accuracy values of radiologists were 0.659 for benign lymph nodes, 0.836 for lymphomas, and 0.580 for metastatic lymph nodes. The precision values of radiologists were 0.478 for benign lymph nodes, 0.329 for lymphomas, and 0.596 for metastatic lymph nodes. The model effectively classifies lymphadenopathies from ultrasound images and outperforms qualitative visual evaluation by experienced radiologists in differential diagnosis.
