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

Computing and analyzing the neuronal structure is essential to studying connectome. Two important tasks for such analysis are finding the soma and constructing the neuronal structure. Finding the soma is considered more important because it is required for some neuron tracing algorithms. We describe a robust automatic soma detection method developed based on the machine learning technique. Images of neurons were three-dimensional confocal microscopic images in the FlyCircuit database. The testing data were randomly selected raw images that contained noises and partial neuronal structures. The number of somas in the images was not known in advance. Our method tries to identify all the somas in the images. Experimental results showed that the method is efficient and robust.
