FASSt : Filtering via Symmetric Autoencoder for Spherical Superficial White Matter Tractography.
Article in Computational diffusion MRI. CDMRI (Workshop), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Superficial white matter (SWM) plays an important role in functioning of the human brain, and it contains a large amount of cortico-cortical connections. However, the difficulties of generating complete and reliable U-fibers make SWM-related analysis lag behind relatively matured Deep white matter (DWM) analysis. With the aid of some newly proposed surface-based SWM tractography algorithms, we have developed a specialized SWM filtering method based on a symmetric variational autoencoder (VAE). In this work, we first demonstrate the advantage of the spherical representation and generate these spherical tracts using the triangular mesh and the registered spherical surface. We then introduce the Filtering via symmetric Autoencoder for Spherical Superficial White Matter tractography (FASSt) framework with a novel symmetric weights module to perform the filtering task in a latent space. We evaluate and compare our method with the state-of-the-art clustering-based method on diffusion MRI data from Human Connectome Project (HCP). The results show that our proposed method outperform these clustering methods and achieves excellent performance in groupwise consistency and topographic regularity.
