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

Heart motion tracking for radiation therapy treatment planning can result in effective motion management strategies to minimize radiation-induced cardiotoxicity. However, automatic heart motion tracking is challenging due to factors that include the complex spatial relationship between the heart and its neighboring structures, dynamic changes in heart shape, and limited image contrast, resolution, and volume coverage. In this study, we developed and evaluated a deep generative shape model-driven level set method to address these challenges. The proposed heart motion tracking method makes use of a heart shape model that characterizes the statistical variations in heart shapes present in a training data set. This heart shape model was established by training a three-layered deep Boltzmann machine (DBM) in order to characterize both local and global heart shape variations. During the tracking phase, a distance regularized level-set evolution (DRLSE) method was applied to delineate the heart contour on each frame of a cine MRI image sequence. The trained shape model was embedded into the DRLSE method as a shape prior term to constrain an evolutional shape to reach the desired heart boundary. Frame-by-frame heart motion tracking was achieved by iteratively mapping the obtained heart contour for each frame to the next frame as a reliable initialization, and performing a level-set evolution. The performance of the proposed motion tracking method was demonstrated using thirty-eight coronal cine MRI image sequences.
