Cervical whole-slide images dataset for multiclass classification.
Article in GigaScience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe clinical pathway for the prevention and treatment of cervical cancer depends on cytology and then the assessment of biopsy specimens, fragments of tissue removed for histological examination. This can be a significant workload and is an obvious exemplar to explore triage based on machine learning analysis of slides. Limited access to large annotated datasets of human diseased tissue is a major obstacle to developing standards and algorithms that can assist diagnosis.
resultsWe present a dataset comprising 2,539 whole-slide images of cervical biopsy specimens, each annotated by several pathologists and consensus on diagnosis and individual features agreed. Each whole-slide image represents 1 slide per patient in iSyntax format, with manual annotations by pathologists in Jason format. Each whole-slide image is assigned a category label, which is the final diagnosis of the image, and a subcategory label, which declares in which subcategory the image is found.
conclusionThis dataset has been used to build a model that accurately predicts diagnosis, allowing the possibility of automatically triaging biopsy specimens, so that the most significant pathologies can be identified rapidly and those patients selected for immediate treatment. The level of annotation, at the subslide level, and the number of cases are unique in public databases and should allow investigators to explore multiple aspects of computer vision relevant to human tissue diagnosis, with no limitation placed on access to the whole-slide images.
