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

Gliomas are known to have different sub-regions within the tumor, including the edema, necrotic, and active tumor regions. Segmenting of these regions is very important for glioma treatment decisions and management. This paper aims to demonstrate the application of U-Net and pre-trained U-Net backbone networks in glioma semantic segmentation, utilizing different magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image weights. The data used in this study for network training, validation, and testing is the Multimodal Brain Tumor Segmentation (BraTS) 2021 challenge. In this study, we applied the U-Net and different pre-trained Backbone U-Net for the semantic segmentation of glioma regions. The ResNet, Inception, and VGG networks, which are pre-trained using the ImageNet dataset, have been used as the Backbone in the U-Net architecture. The Accuracy (ACC) and Intersection over Union (IoU) were employed to assess the performance of the networks. The most prominent finding to emerge from this study is that trained ResNet-U-Net with T
