Inpainting for Saturation Artifacts in Optical Coherence Tomography Using Dictionary-Based Sparse Representation.
Article in IEEE photonics journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Saturation artifacts in optical coherence tomography (OCT) occur when received signal exceeds the dynamic range of spectrometer. Saturation artifact shows a streaking pattern and could impact the quality of OCT images, leading to inaccurate medical diagnosis. In this paper, we automatically localize saturation artifacts and propose an artifact correction method via inpainting. We adopt a dictionary-based sparse representation scheme for inpainting. Experimental results demonstrate that, in both case of synthetic artifacts and real artifacts, our method outperforms interpolation method and Euler's elastica method in both qualitative and quantitative results. The generic dictionary offers similar image quality when applied to tissue samples which are excluded from dictionary training. This method may have the potential to be widely used in a variety of OCT images for the localization and inpainting of the saturation artifacts.
