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

In some fields of medical diagnosis or industrial nondestructive testing, it is difficult to obtain complete computed tomography (CT) data due to the limitation of radiation dose or other factors. Therefore, image reconstruction of incomplete projection data is the focus of this paper. In this paper, a new image reconstruction model based on self-guided image filtering (SGIF) term is proposed for few-view and segmental limited-angle (SLA) CT reconstruction. Then the alternating direction method (ADM) is used to solve this model. For simplicity, we call it ADM-SGIF method. The key idea of ADM-SGIF method is to use the reconstructed image itself as a reference and utilize its structural features to guide CT reconstruction. This method can effectively preserve image structures and remove shading artifacts. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed reconstruction method, we conduct digital phantom and real CT data experiments. The results indicate that ADM-SGIF method outperforms competing methods, including total variation (TV), relative total variation (RTV), and L0-norm minimization solved by ADM (ADM-L0) methods, in both subjective and objective evaluations.
