Joint aortic root segmentation and landmark localization on intraoperative fluoroscopy for TAVI guidance.

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
Accurate intraoperative delineation of the aortic root and localization of key anatomical landmarks during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) remain difficult because fluoroscopy provides low soft-tissue contrast and is frequently degraded by motion and overlap from catheters and delivery systems. This study developed and validated a multitask deep learning model for simultaneous aortic root segmentation and landmark localization on fluoroscopic images to support image-guided TAVI. A retrospective dataset of 2,895 fully anonymized fluoroscopic frames from 83 patients who underwent TAVI between 2018 and 2024 was used. Expert annotations included binary masks of the contrast-enhanced aortic root and four anatomical landmarks: two aortic annulus points (AA1, AA2) and two sinotubular junction points near the coronary ostia (STJ1, STJ2). We developed BoundaryAwareMANet (BAMNet), a multitask architecture combining an EfficientNet-V2 encoder, an MA-Net-inspired decoder, a coordinate-aware landmark head, and an auxiliary boundary-guidance pathway. Model performance was evaluated using patient-level five-fold cross-validation. Across five folds, BAMNet achieved Dice
