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

During the process of labor, the intrapartum transperineal ultrasound examination serves as a valuable tool, allowing direct observation of the relative positional relationship between the pubic symphysis and fetal head (PSFH). Accurate assessment of fetal head descent and the prediction of the most suitable mode of delivery heavily rely on this relationship. However, achieving an objective and quantitative interpretation of the ultrasound images necessitates precise PSFH segmentation (PSFHS), a task that is both time-consuming and demanding. Integrating the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of medical ultrasound image segmentation, the development and evaluation of AI-based models rely significantly on access to comprehensive and meticulously annotated datasets. Unfortunately, publicly accessible datasets tailored for PSFHS are notably scarce. Bridging this critical gap, we introduce a PSFHS dataset comprising 1358 images, meticulously annotated at the pixel level. The annotation process adhered to standardized protocols and involved collaboration among medical experts. Remarkably, this dataset stands as the most expansive and comprehensive resource for PSFHS to date.
