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

Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) is a promising noninvasive imaging modality and is capable of providing functional characteristics of biological tissue by quantifying optical parameters. The DOT image reconstruction is ill-posed and ill-conditioned, due to the highly diffusive nature of light propagation in biological tissues and limited boundary measurements. The widely used regularization technique for DOT image reconstruction is Tikhonov regularization, which tends to yield oversmoothed and low-quality images containing severe artifacts. It is necessary to accurately choose a regularization parameter for Tikhonov regularization. To overcome these limitations, we develop a noniterative reconstruction method, whereby optical properties are recovered based on a back-propagation neural network (BPNN). We train the parameters of BPNN before DOT image reconstruction based on a set of training data. DOT image reconstruction is achieved by implementing a single evaluation of the trained network. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we compare with the conventional Tikhonov regularization-based reconstruction method. The experimental results demonstrate that image quality and quantitative accuracy of reconstructed optical properties are significantly improved with the proposed algorithm.
