Locally Low-Rank Denoising of Multi-Echo Functional MRI Data With Application in Resting-State Analysis.
Article in Topics in magnetic resonance imaging : TMRI, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesLocally low-rank (LLR) denoising of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) time series image data is extended to multi-echo (ME) data. The proposed method extends the capabilities of non-physiologic noise suppression beyond single-echo applications with a dedicated ME algorithm. MATERIALS AND
methodsFollowing an institutional review board (IRB) approved protocol, resting-state fMRI data were acquired in 7 healthy subjects. A compact 3T scanner enabled whole-brain acquisition of multiband ME fMRI data at high spatial resolution (1.4 × 1.4 × 2.8 mm 3 ) with a 1810 ms repetition time (TR). Image data were denoised with ME-LLR preceding functional processing. The results of connectivity maps generated from denoised data were compared with maps generated with equivalent processing of non-denoised images. To assess ME-LLR as a method to reduce scan time, comparisons were made between maps computed from image data with full and retrospectively truncated durations. Assessments were completed with seed-based connectivity analyses using echo-combined image data. In a feasibility assessment, nondenoised and denoised full-duration echo-combined data were equivalently processed with independent component analysis (ICA) and compared.
resultsME-LLR denoising yielded strengthened resting-state network connectivity maps after nuisance regression and seed-based connectivity analysis. In assessing ME-LLR as a scan reduction mechanism, maps generated from denoised data at half scan time showed comparable quality with maps generated from full-duration, non-denoised data, at both single subject and group levels. ME-LLR substantially increased temporal signal-to-noise ratio (tSNR) for image data respective to each individual echo and for image data after nuisance regression. Among echo-specific image volumes, increases in tSNR yielded by ME-LLR were most pronounced for image data with the longest echo time and thereby lowest SNR. ICA showed resting-state networks consistently identified between non-denoised and denoised data, with clearer demarcation of networks for ME-LLR.
conclusionsME-LLR is demonstrated to suppress non-physiologic noise, enhance functional connectivity map quality, and could potentially facilitate scan time reduction in ME-fMRI.
