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

The existing deep learning-based denoising methods predicting standard-dose PET images (S-PET) from the low-dose versions (L-PET) solely rely on a single-dose level of PET images as the input of deep learning network. In this work, we exploited the prior knowledge in the form of multiple low-dose levels of PET images to estimate the S-PET images. To this end, a high-resolution ResNet architecture was utilized to predict S-PET images from 6 to 4% L-PET images. For the 6% L-PET imaging, two models were developed; the first and second models were trained using a single input of 6% L-PET and three inputs of 6%, 4%, and 2% L-PET as input to predict S-PET images, respectively. Similarly, for 4% L-PET imaging, a model was trained using a single input of 4% low-dose data, and a three-channel model was developed getting 4%, 3%, and 2% L-PET images. The performance of the four models was evaluated using structural similarity index (SSI), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), and root mean square error (RMSE) within the entire head regions and malignant lesions. The 4% multi-input model led to improved SSI and PSNR and a significant decrease in RMSE by 22.22% and 25.42% within the entire head region and malignant lesions, respectively. Furthermore, the 4% multi-input network remarkably decreased the lesions' SUV
