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

This study aims to evaluate the success of artificial intelligence models developed using convolutional neural network-based algorithms on CBCT images. Labeling was done by segmentation method for 15 different conditions including caries, restorative filling material, root-canal filling material, dental implant, implant supported crown, crown, pontic, impacted tooth, supernumerary tooth, residual root, osteosclerotic area, periapical lesion, radiolucent jaw lesion, radiopaque jaw lesion, and mixed appearing jaw lesion on the data set consisting of 300 CBCT images. In model development, the Mask R-CNN architecture and ResNet 101 model were used as a transfer learning method. The success metrics of the model were calculated with the confusion matrix method. When the F1 scores of the developed models were evaluated, the most successful dental implant was found to be 1, and the lowest F1 score was found to be a mixed appearing jaw lesion. F1 scores were respectively dental implant, root canal filling material, implant supported crown, restorative filling material, radiopaque jaw lesion, crown, pontic, impacted tooth, caries, residual tooth root, radiolucent jaw lesion, osteosclerotic area, periapical lesion, supernumerary tooth, for mixed appearing jaw lesion; 1 is 0.99, 0.98, 0.98, 0.97, 0.96, 0.96, 0.95, 0.94, 0.94, 0.94, 0.90, 0.90, 0.87, and 0.8. Interpreting CBCT images is a time-consuming process and requires expertise. In the era of digital transformation, artificial intelligence-based systems that can automatically evaluate images and convert them into report format as a decision support mechanism will contribute to reducing the workload of physicians, thus increasing the time allocated to the interpretation of pathologies.
