About this study

The purpose of this study is to study the injury of the anterior talofibular ligament by deep learning method and compare a variety of different deep learning models to establish a deep learning method that can accurately identify and grade the injury of anterior talofibular ligament, and obtain a model with better recognition and grading effect.

Read the detailed description
  1. Recognition and segmentation of anterior talofibular ligament based on DenseNet. Densenet was used to recognize the axial T2-fs image, and the image level was the most typical one. The labelimg program based on Python was used to locate the coordinates of the anterior talofibular ligament and then imported into Python for learning. All the data were divided into a training set (70%, and then 30% of the training set was selected as the verification set). The remaining 30% was used as the test set to evaluate the accuracy of model recognition. After identifying the anterior talofibular ligament, the local clipping and amplification are carried out to remove the redundant information. Finally, input the result to the next step.
  2. Establishment and comparison of various deep learning models: four deep learning models were established and compared in this study, namely VGG19, AlexNet, CapsNet, and GoogleNet. The models using image fitting alone and those combining with clinical physical examination data were compared for each deep learning model. The diagnostic efficiency between models was expressed by the ROC curve, including AUC, F1 score, etc. the ROC curve was further analyzed by t-test, Delong test, and other statistical methods. In this study, the data were divided into a training set (70%, 30% in the training set as the validation set), and the remaining 30% as the test set to evaluate the classification accuracy.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Diagnositic testDiagnostic test

    The results of hip arthroscopy were taken as the gold standard, and MRI examination was taken as the research object

Study groups in NCT04955067
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Normal control group-Grade 0Arthroscopic examination of the ankle joint was normal, and the ligament was intact without injury or tear.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Diagnositic test
Ligament injury -Grade 1Arthroscopic examination of the ankle joint showed ligament degeneration or injury, but no local or complete tear.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Diagnositic test
Ligament tear-Grade 2Arthroscopy of the ankle joint revealed partial or complete loss of ligaments.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Diagnositic test

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lateral Ligament, Ankle, run by Peking University Third Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact huishu Yuan, MD (15810245738, huishuy@bjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Deep Learning of Anterior Talofibular Ligament: Comparison of Different Models (time frame: 2021.1-2022.3.1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jul 2021.
