SPP-SegNet and SE-DenseNet201: A Dual-Model Approach for Cervical Cell Segmentation and Classification.
Article in Cancers, 2025. 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesCervical cancer, the fourth most common malignancy in women worldwide, continues to pose a significant threat to global health. Manual examination of the Pap smear image is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to human error due to the large number of slides and subjective judgment. This study proposes a novel SegNet-based spatial pyramid pooling (SPP-SegNet) deep learning model for segmentation and a Squeeze-and-Excitation-based (SE-DenseNet201) model for classification, aimed at improving the accuracy of cervical cancer detection.
methodsThe model incorporates the SPP bottleneck and atrous convolution in the SegNet framework, allowing for the extraction of multiscale spatial features and improving segmentation performance. The segmentation output is used as input for the classification task. The proposed method is evaluated on the Pomeranian and SIPaKMeD datasets.
resultsSegmentation results show that SPP-SegNet achieves 98.53% accuracy on the Pomeranian data set, exceeding standard SegNet, 97.86%. It also achieves 94.15% accuracy on the SIPaKMeD dataset, outperforming the standard SegNet, which is 90.95%. For classification, SE-DenseNet201 achieves 93% and 99% accuracy for the Pomeranian and SIPaKMeD binary classification, respectively, using the bounding box input.
conclusionsThese results show that SPP-SegNet and SE-DenseNet201 can potentially automate cervical cell segmentation and classification, facilitating the early detection and diagnosis of cervical cancer.
