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

Medical image analysis plays an important role in computer-aided liver-carcinoma diagnosis. Aiming at the existing image fuzzy clustering segmentation being not suitable to segment CT image with non-uniform background, a fast robust kernel space fuzzy clustering segmentation algorithm is proposed. Firstly, the sample in euclidean space is mapped into the high dimensional feature space through the kernel function. Then the linear weighted filtering image is obtained by combining the current pixel with its neighborhood pixels through the space information in CT image. Finally, the two-dimensional histogram between the clustered pixel and its neighborhood mean is introduced into the robust kernel space image fuzzy clustering, and the iterative expression of the fast robust fuzzy clustering in kernel space is obtained by using Lagrange multiplier method. The experimental results on four databases show that our proposed method can segment liver tumors from abdominal CT volumes effectively and automatically, and the comprehensive segmentation performance of the proposed method is superior to that of several existing methods.
