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

purposeAcute abdominal aortic dissection (AD) is a serious disease. Early detection based on ultrasound (US) can improve the prognosis of AD, especially in emergency settings. We explored the ability of deep learning (DL) to diagnose abdominal AD in US images, which may help the diagnosis of AD by novice radiologists or non-professionals.

methodsThere were 374 US images from patients treated before June 30, 2022. The images were classified as AD-positive and AD-negative images. Among them, 90% of images were used as the training set, and 10% of images were used as the test set. A Densenet-169 model and a VGG-16 model were used in this study and compared with two human readers.

resultsDL models demonstrated high sensitivity and AUC for diagnosing abdominal AD in US images, and DL models showed generally better performance than human readers.

conclusionOur findings demonstrated the efficacy of DL-aided diagnosis of abdominal AD in US images, which can be helpful in emergency settings.
