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

Registration is the process of transforming images so they are aligned in the same coordinate space. In the medical field, image registration is often used to align multi-modal or multi-parametric images of the same organ. A uniquely challenging subset of medical image registration is cross-modality registration-the task of aligning images captured with different scanning methodologies. In this study, we present a transformer-based deep learning pipeline for performing cross-modality, radiology-pathology image registration for human prostate samples. While existing solutions for multi-modality prostate image registration focus on the prediction of transform parameters, our pipeline predicts a set of homologous points on the two image modalities. The homologous point registration pipeline achieves better average control point deviation than the current state-of-the-art automatic registration pipeline. It reaches this accuracy without requiring masked MR images which may enable this approach to achieve similar results in other organ systems and for partial tissue samples.
