Development of an oral cancer detection system through deep learning.
Article in BMC oral health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
objectiveWe aimed to develop an AI-based model that uses a portable electronic oral endoscope to capture intraoral images of patients for the detection of oral cancer. SUBJECTS AND
methodsFrom September 2019 to October 2023, 205 high-quality annotated images of oral cancer were collected using a portable oral electronic endoscope at the Chinese PLA General Hospital for this study. The U-Net and ResNet-34 deep learning models were employed for oral cancer detection. The performance of these models was evaluated using several metrics: Dice coefficient, Intersection over Union (IoU), Loss, Precision, Recall, and F1 Score.
resultsDuring the algorithm model training phase, the Dice values were approximately 0.8, the Loss values were close to 0, and the IoU values were around 0.7. In the validation phase, the highest Dice values ranged between 0.4 and 0.5, while the Loss values increased, and the training loss began to decrease gradually. In the test phase, the model achieved a maximum Precision of 0.96 with a confidence threshold of 0.990. Additionally, with a confidence threshold of 0.010, the highest F1 score reached was 0.58.
conclusionThis study provides an initial demonstration of the potential of deep learning models in identifying oral cancer.
