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

Computed Tomography (CT) is a widely use medical image modality in clinical medicine, because it produces excellent visualizations of fine structural details of the human body. In clinical procedures, it is desirable to acquire CT scans by minimizing the X-ray flux to prevent patients from being exposed to high radiation. However, these Low-Dose CT (LDCT) scanning protocols compromise the signal-to-noise ratio of the CT images because of noise and artifacts over the image space. Thus, various restoration methods have been published over the past 3 decades to produce high-quality CT images from these LDCT images. More recently, as opposed to conventional LDCT restoration methods, Deep Learning (DL)-based LDCT restoration approaches have been rather common due to their characteristics of being data-driven, high-performance, and fast execution. Thus, this study aims to elaborate on the role of DL techniques in LDCT restoration and critically review the applications of DL-based approaches for LDCT restoration. To achieve this aim, different aspects of DL-based LDCT restoration applications were analyzed. These include DL architectures, performance gains, functional requirements, and the diversity of objective functions. The outcome of the study highlights the existing limitations and future directions for DL-based LDCT restoration. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no previous reviews, which specifically address this topic.
