Reconstruction of PET Images Using Cross-Entropy and Field of Experts.
Article in Entropy (Basel, Switzerland), 2019. 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
The reconstruction of positron emission tomography data is a difficult task, particularly at low count rates because Poisson noise has a significant influence on the statistical uncertainty of positron emission tomography (PET) measurements. Prior information is frequently used to improve image quality. In this paper, we propose the use of a field of experts to model a priori structure and capture anatomical spatial dependencies of the PET images to address the problems of noise and low count data, which make the reconstruction of the image difficult. We reconstruct PET images by using a modified MXE algorithm, which minimizes a objective function with the cross-entropy as a fidelity term, while the field of expert model is incorporated as a regularizing term. Comparisons with the expectation maximization algorithm and a iterative method with a prior penalizing relative differences showed that the proposed method can lead to accurate estimation of the image, especially with acquisitions at low count rate.
