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
objectiveThis study investigated the feasibility of using deep learning-based super-resolution (DL-SR) technique on low-resolution (LR) images to generate high-resolution (HR) MR images with the aim of scan time reduction. The efficacy of DL-SR was also assessed through the application of brain volume measurement (BVM). MATERIALS AND
methodsIn vivo brain images acquired with 3D-T1W from various MRI scanners were utilized. For model training, LR images were generated by downsampling the original 1 mm-2 mm isotropic resolution images. Pairs of LR and HR images were used for training 3D residual dense net (RDN). For model testing, actual scanned 2 mm isotropic resolution 3D-T1W images with one-minute scan time were used. Normalized root-mean-square error (NRMSE), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), and structural similarity (SSIM) were used for model evaluation. The evaluation also included brain volume measurement, with assessments of subcortical brain regions.
resultsThe results showed that DL-SR model improved the quality of LR images compared with cubic interpolation, as indicated by NRMSE (24.22% vs 30.13%), PSNR (26.19 vs 24.65), and SSIM (0.96 vs 0.95). For volumetric assessments, there were no significant differences between DL-SR and actual HR images (p > 0.05, Pearson's correlation > 0.90) at seven subcortical regions. DISCUSSION: The combination of LR MRI and DL-SR enables addressing prolonged scan time in 3D MRI scans while providing sufficient image quality without affecting brain volume measurement.
