Weakly Supervised Learning of Oral Cavity Images for Separating Precancer from Cancer.
Article in IEEE International Conference on Omni-layer Intelligent Systems : COINS. IEEE International Conference on Omni-layer Intelligent Systems, 2026. 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
Early detection is crucial for reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with oral cancer. Visual examination of the oral cavity is the first step in screening for lesions that are cancer or precancer (i.e., the direct precursor to cancer). In contrast to existing work that uses image or lesion labels, we explore a weakly supervised method to address the situation where only patient-level labels are available. Specifically, we use multiple-instance learning (MIL) to classify patients with oral precancer versus cancer. Our approach involves three steps: image filtering, mouth detection, and patient-level classification. The method performs well on filtering and mouth detection and shows promising results in distinguishing precancer from cancer on an independent test set, demonstrating its potential as a proof-of-concept (PoC). We also discuss current limitations and future directions.
