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

No-reference image quality assessment (NR-IQA) methods automatically and objectively predict the perceptual quality of images without access to a reference image. Therefore, due to the lack of pristine images in most medical image acquisition systems, they play a major role in supporting the examination of resulting images and may affect subsequent treatment. Their usage is particularly important in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characterized by long acquisition times and a variety of factors that influence the quality of images. In this work, a survey covering recently introduced NR-IQA methods for the assessment of MR images is presented. First, typical distortions are reviewed and then popular NR methods are characterized, taking into account the way in which they describe MR images and create quality models for prediction. The survey also includes protocols used to evaluate the methods and popular benchmark databases. Finally, emerging challenges are outlined along with an indication of the trends towards creating accurate image prediction models.
