Cellular Automata Tractography: Fast Geodesic Diffusion MR Tractography and Connectivity Based Segmentation on the GPU.
Article in Neuroinformatics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Geodesic based tractography on diffusion magnetic resonance data is a method to devise long distance connectivities among the brain regions. In this study, cellular automata technique is applied to the geodesic tractography problem and the algorithm is implemented on a graphics processing unit. Cellular automaton based method is preferable to current techniques due to its parallel nature and ability to solve the connectivity based segmentation problem with the same computational complexity, which has important applications in neuroimaging. An application to prior-less tracking and connectivity based segmentation of corpus callosum fibers is presented as an example. A geodesic tractography based corpus callosum atlas is provided, which reveals high projections to the cortical language areas. The developed method not only allows fast computation especially for segmentation but also provides a powerful and intuitive framework, suitable to derive new algorithms to perform connectivity calculations and allowing novel applications.
