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

objectiveIn the clinic, myocardial perfusion computed tomography (MPCT) imaging is commonly used to detect and assess myocardial ischemia quantitatively. However, repeated scanning on the myocardial region in the cine mode will increase the radiation dose for patients. With lowering radiation dose, the quality of images are degraded by noise induced artifact, which hampers the diagnostic accuracy. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a redundancy information induced iterative reconstruction framework for high quality MPCT images at the case of low dose.

methodsMPCT images have redundant structural information within frames and highly similarity between adjacent frames. Inspired by the two properties, in this work we propose a penalized weighted least-squares (PWLS) model incorporating NLM and TV based hybrid constraints, which is referred to as PWLS-aviNLM-TV for simplicity. The proposed algorithm can effectively eliminate noise and artifacts by taking into account the similarity between adjacent frames and redundancy information within frames, which also can improve spatial resolution within frames and maintain temporal resolution.

resultsThe experimental results on the 4D extended cardiac-torso (XCAT) phantom and preclinical porcine dataset demonstrates that the PWLS-aviNLM-TV algorithm obtains better performance in terms of noise reduction and artifacts suppression than the PWLS-TV and PWLSaviNLM algorithm. Moreover, the proposed algorithm can preserve the edges and detail information thereby efficiently differentiate ischemia from myocardium.

conclusionsThe present redundancy information induced reconstruction algorithm can reconstruct high-quality images from low-dose MPCT for better clinical imaging diagnosis.
