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

Digital imaging plays a critical role for image guided diagnosis and clinical trials, and the amount of image data is fast growing. There are two major requirements for image data management: scalability for massive scales and support of comprehensive queries. Traditional Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS for short) are based on relational data management systems and suffer from limited scalability and query support. Therefore, new systems that support fast, scalable and comprehensive queries on image data are highly demanded. In this paper, we introduce two alternative approaches: DCMRL/XMLStore (RL/XML for short)-a parallel, hybrid relational and XML data management approach, and DCMDocStore (DOC for short)-a NoSQL document store approach. DCMRL/XMLStore manages DICOM images as binary large objects and metadata as relational tables and XML documents based on IBM DB2, which is parallelized through data partitioning. DCMDocStore manages DICOM metadata as JSON objects, and DICOM images as encoded attachments in MongoDB running on multiple nodes. We have delivered two open source systems DCMRL/XMLStore and DCMDocStore. Both systems support scalable data management and comprehensive queries. We also evaluated them with nearly one million DICOM images from National Biomedical Imaging Archive. The results show that, DCMDocStore demonstrates high data loading speed, high scalability and fault tolerance. DCMRL/XMLStore provides efficient queries, but comes with slower data loading. Traditional PACS systems have inherent limitations on flexible queries and scalability for massive amount of images.
