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

objectiveWe propose an efficient method to reduce the noise in low-dose cerebral perfusion CT images using prior image constrained diffusion tensor to reduce the radiation dose in brain CT examination.

methodsBy utilizing the redundant information in cerebral perfusion CT images, we embedded the complementary structure information in prior images into lowdose cerebral perfusion CT image restoration process to suppress the image noise and artifacts.We first calculated the diffusion tensor for the low-dose cerebral perfusion CT image and prior image separately and then constructed a prior image constrained diffusion tensor (PICDT) to incorporate the structure information from the prior image into low-dose image restoration process.

resultsIn experiments with the Shepp-Logan phantom, the SSIM value of CBF map obtained by the proposed algorithm was increased by 63% as compared with that of the FBP algorithm.In analysis of the clinical dataset, the SSIM value of CBF map obtained by the proposed algorithm was increased by 45% as compared with that of FBP algorithm.

conclusionThe proposed method can effectively reduce noises and artifacts of low-dose cerebral perfusion CT images while maintaining the structural details to obtain accurate cerebral hemodynamic maps.
