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

Herein we report on a deep-learning method for the removal of instrumental noise and unwanted spectral artifacts in Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) or Raman spectra, especially in automated applications in which a large number of spectra have to be acquired within limited time. Automated batch workflows allowing only a few seconds per measurement, without the possibility of manually optimizing measurement parameters, often result in challenging and heterogeneous datasets. A prominent example of this problem is the automated spectroscopic measurement of particles in environmental samples regarding their content of microplastic (MP) particles. Effective spectral identification is hampered by low signal-to-noise ratios and baseline artifacts as, again, spectral post-processing and analysis must be performed in automated measurements, without adjusting specific parameters for each spectrum. We demonstrate the application of a simple autoencoding neural net for reconstruction of complex spectral distortions, such as high levels of noise, baseline bending, interferences, or distorted bands. Once trained on appropriate data, the network is able to remove all unwanted artifacts in a single pass without the need for tuning spectra-specific parameters and with high computational efficiency. Thus, it offers great potential for monitoring applications with a large number of spectra and limited analysis time with availability of representative data from already completed experiments.
