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

Tongue coating is a crucial diagnostic indicator in traditional Chinese medicine, intuitively reflecting the body's physiological and pathological conditions. However, traditional visual inspection methods are highly susceptible to subjective bias, often resulting in diagnostic deviations and inconsistencies. To address these limitations, this study proposes an intelligent tongue coating diagnostic model based on an enhanced YOLOv13. The model integrates a hybrid architecture of swin transformer and YOLOv13, effectively capturing global contextual and local textural features for fine-grained recognition and analysis of tongue coating characteristics. Experimental results show that the enhanced model substantially outperforms the original YOLOv13 in fine-grained feature extraction and boundary localization, establishing a reliable foundation for the objectification, standardization, and intelligent advancement of tongue diagnosis in traditional Chinese medicine.
