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

Multi-sequence magnetic resonance imaging is crucial in accurately identifying knee abnormalities but requires substantial expertise from radiologists to interpret. Here, we introduce a deep learning model incorporating co-plane attention across image sequences to classify knee abnormalities. To assess the effectiveness of our model, we collected the largest multi-sequence knee magnetic resonance imaging dataset involving the most comprehensive range of abnormalities, comprising 1748 subjects and 12 types of abnormalities. Our model achieved an overall area under the receiver operating characteristic curve score of 0.812. It achieved an average accuracy of 0.78, outperforming junior radiologists (accuracy 0.65) and remains competitive with senior radiologists (accuracy 0.80). Notably, with the assistance of model output, the diagnosis accuracy of all radiologists was improved significantly (p < 0.001), elevating from 0.73 to 0.79 on average. The interpretability analysis demonstrated that the model decision-making process is consistent with the clinical knowledge, enhancing its credibility and reliability in clinical practice.
