A Framework for Two-class Classification of Pulmonary Tuberculosis using Artificial Intelligence
Article in Current medical imaging, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimThe study investigates the creation and assessment of Machine Learning (ML) models using different classifiers such as SVM (Support Vector Machine), logistic regression, decision tree, k-nearest neighbour (kNN), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) for the automated identification of tuberculosis (TB) from chest X-ray(CXR) images.
backgroundAs a persistent worldwide health concern, TB requires early detection for effective treatment and control of the infection. The differential diagnosis of TB is a challenge, even for experienced radiologists. With the use of automated processing of CXR images which are reasonable and frequently used for TB diagnosis, employing Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques provides novel possibilities.
objectiveThe objective of the study was to identify respiratory disorders, radiologists devote a lot of time reviewing each of the CXR images. As such, they can identify the type of disease using automated methods based on AI algorithms. This work advances the diagnosis of TB via machine learning, which may result in early treatment options and enhanced outcomes for patients.
methodThe disease was classified using distinct parameters like edge, shape, and Gray Level Difference Statistics (GLDS) on splitting of the dataset at 70:30 and 80:20.
resultsIt was observed that authors attained 93.5% accuracy using SVM with linear kernel for a 70:30 data split considering hybrid parameters. The comparison was made considering different feature extraction techniques, different dataset splitting, existing work, and another dataset.
conclusionThe designed model using SVM, decision tree, kNN, ANN, and logistic regression was compared using other state-of-the-art techniques, other datasets, different feature extraction techniques, and different splitting of data. AI has great promise for enhancing tuberculosis detection, which will ultimately lead to an earlier diagnosis and improved disease management.
