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

A comparative study has been depicted between the contour and topographic watershed segmentation approach for short-axis 5D cardiac sequences with MRI for medical decision. The fifth dimension has been defined as the excitation of pixels based on the gray scale around the myocardium without consideration of the morphological structure of the heart in 3D and fourth dimension (time). Three patients were performed the first is healthy, the second has a genetic disease, and the third had a heart failure syndrome for a dimension ROI = 150mm, average age is 54 years old, and mean of weight = 86 kg. A contouring and watershed segmentation algorithm for a sample of 63 Cine Fiesta MRI sequences for short-axis cuts with Matlab and its in-box toolbox complements was implemented. For a healthy patient 13.4% tolerance rate for the estimation of the stroke fraction, 6.4% for a patient with genetic disease, 8.7% error rate for a patient with heart failure symptom. The results show that the regurgitation fraction by the contour approach for a patient case with symptom of the presence of a genetic disease is 0.0335% for an aortic valve, 0.248% for a mitral valve, an error rate 0.16% for estimating this parameter for the aortic orifice with the watershed segmentation approach. In return, for a patient with suspected heart failure (stenosis or regurgitation) the regurgitation fraction is estimated by 0% for aortic valve, 1.49 e
