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

Background: Projection tomography (PT) is a very important and valuable method for fast volumetric imaging with isotropic spatial resolution. Sparse-view or limited-angle reconstruction-based PT can greatly reduce data acquisition time, lower radiation doses, and simplify sample fixation modes. However, few techniques can currently achieve image reconstruction based on few-view projection data, which is especially important for Methods: A 2-stage deep learning network (TSDLN)-based framework was proposed for parallel-beam PT reconstructions using few-view projections. The framework is composed of a reconstruction network (R-net) and a correction network (C-net). The R-net is a generative adversarial network (GAN) used to complete image information with direct back-projection (BP) of a sparse signal, bringing the reconstructed image close to reconstruction results obtained from fully projected data. The C-net is a U-net array that denoises the compensation result to obtain a high-quality reconstructed image. Results: The accuracy and feasibility of the proposed TSDLN-based framework in few-view projection-based reconstruction were first evaluated with simulations, using images from the DeepLesion public dataset. The framework exhibited better reconstruction performance than traditional analytic reconstruction algorithms and iterative algorithms, especially in cases using sparse-view projection images. For example, with as few as two projections, the TSDLN-based framework reconstructed high-quality images very close to the original image, with structural similarities greater than 0.8. By using previously acquired optical PT (OPT) data in the TSDLN-based framework trained on computed tomography (CT) data, we further exemplified the migration capabilities of the TSDLN-based framework. The results showed that when the number of projections was reduced to 5, the contours and distribution information of the samples in question could still be seen in the reconstructed images. Conclusions: The simulations and experimental results showed that the TSDLN-based framework has strong reconstruction abilities using few-view projection images, and has great potential in the application of
