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

Lung segmentation in x-rays is a critical step for automated clinical diagnosis and severity grading of various pulmonary diseases. Lung segmentation from premature chest x-rays is particularly challenging due to tiny size of lungs, variability of anatomical presentations, and presence of radiological artifacts. We propose a two-step deep learning based method for lung delineation: we first perform lung detection, which is followed by segmentation of the retro-cardiac lung region. We finetune a segmentation model (UNETR) using pediatric (407 images) and premature (193 images) cohorts with a weighted loss. The model is first pretrained on a large chest x-ray data (∼31,000 scans). Our proposed strategy accurately segments lungs in both pediatric and premature x-rays with a mean Dice score of 0.960 and 0.946, and a mean Hausdorff distance of 6.576 and 8.124 pixels respectively.
