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

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) causes significant healthcare burdens worldwide. This study aims to establish a deep learning model for the diagnosis of DVT from the assessment of vein compressibility. Considering the complexity of ultrasound images, convolutional neural networks with UNet and residual neural network (ResNet) are established for image segmentation, from venous duplex ultrasonographic video images, obtained through standard and portable handheld ultrasound methods. To further evaluate the similarity between the predicted and ground truth images, the structural similarity index (SSIM) is employed. Our deep learning model achieves over 90% accuracy, providing an innovative tool for both images and videos. This study harnesses the power of machine learning to develop an automatic labeling tool that can diagnose DVT by analyzing ultrasonography images. To make the tool more accessible to front-line clinicians, a user-friendly application is created to quickly assess possible clinical severity and enable prompt medical intervention, reducing disease progression.
