Multistage feature selection and stacked generalization model for cancer detection.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
To address the issue of reliable cancer screening, this study proposes a novel approach to select key features in conjunction with a stacking classifier. It reduces the number of features required while maintaining the same diagnostic accuracy. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method yields superior performance in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, precision, specificity, and AUC on each benchmark dataset. This stacked model, built from Logistic Regression, Naïve Bayes, Decision Tree and a Multilayer Perceptron as meta-classifier, achieves 100% accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and AUC using the selected optimal feature subsets. The findings confirm that intelligent feature selection helps models perform better and is easier to use in identification of cancer.
