Constructing Multiwavelet-based Shearlets and using Them for Automatic Segmentation of Noisy Brain Images Affected by COVID-19.
Article in Journal of medical signals and sensors. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Backgorund: Nowadays, everybody's life is dominated by COVID-19, which might have been the source of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. This virus disrupts the lungs first of all. Recently, it has been found that coronavirus may affect the brain. Because all body actions rely on the brain, hence investigating its healthy is an essential item in coronavirus effects. Method: Brain image segmentation can be helpful in the detection of the regions damaged by the effects of coronavirus. Since every image given by photography devices may have noises, therefore, first of all, the brain magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) images must be denoised for best investigation. In the present paper, we have presented the construction of multishearlets based on multiwavelets for the first time and have used them for the purpose of denoising. Multiwavelets have some advantages to wavelets. Therefore, we have used them in the shearlet system to expand the properties of multiwavelets in all directions. After denoising, we have proposed a scheme for the automatic characterization of the initial curve in the active contour model for segmentation. Detecting the initial curve is a challenging task in active contour-based segmentation because detecting an initial curve far from the desired region can lead to unfavorable results. Results: The results show the performance of using multishearlets in detecting affected regions by COVID-19. Using multishearlets has led to the high value of peak signal-to-noise ratio and Structural similarity index measure in comparison with original shearlets. Original shearlets are constructed from wavelets whereas we have constructed multishearlets from multiwavelets. Conclusion: The results show that multishearlets can neutralize the effect of noise in MRA images in a good way rather than shearlets. Moreover, the proposed scheme for segmentation can lead to 0.99 accuracy.
