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

Singular value decomposition (SVD) is a valuable factorization technique used in clutter rejection filtering for power Doppler imaging. Conventionally, SVD is applied to a Casorati matrix of radio frequency data, which enables filtering based on spatial or temporal characteristics. In this article, we propose a clutter filtering method that uses a higher order SVD (HOSVD) applied to a tensor of aperture data, e.g., delayed channel data. We discuss temporal, spatial, and aperture domain features that can be leveraged in filtering and demonstrate that this multidimensional approach improves sensitivity toward blood flow. Further, we show that HOSVD remains more robust to short ensemble lengths than conventional SVD filtering. Validation of this technique is shown using Field II simulations and in vivo data.
