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

objectivesTo investigate the usefulness of super-resolution deep learning reconstruction (SR-DLR) with cardiac option in the assessment of image quality in patients with stent-assisted coil embolization, coil embolization, and flow-diverting stent placement compared with other image reconstructions.

methodsThis single-centre retrospective study included 50 patients (mean age, 59 years; range, 44-81 years; 13 men) who were treated with stent-assisted coil embolization, coil embolization, and flow-diverting stent placement between January and July 2023. The images were reconstructed using filtered back projection (FBP), hybrid iterative reconstruction (IR), and SR-DLR. The objective image analysis included image noise in the Hounsfield unit (HU), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), and full width at half maximum (FWHM). Subjectively, two radiologists evaluated the overall image quality for the visualization of the flow-diverting stent, coil, and stent.

resultsThe image noise in HU in SR-DLR was 6.99 ± 1.49, which was significantly lower than that in images reconstructed with FBP (12.32 ± 3.01) and hybrid IR (8.63 ± 2.12) (P < .001). Both the mean SNR and CNR were significantly higher in SR-DLR than in FBP and hybrid IR (P < .001 and P < .001). The FWHMs for the stent (P < .004), flow-diverting stent (P < .001), and coil (P < .001) were significantly lower in SR-DLR than in FBP and hybrid IR. The subjective visual scores were significantly higher in SR-DLR than in other image reconstructions (P < .001).

conclusionsSR-DLR with cardiac option is useful for follow-up imaging in stent-assisted coil embolization and flow-diverting stent placement in terms of lower image noise, higher SNR and CNR, superior subjective image analysis, and less blooming artifact than other image reconstructions. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: SR-DLR with cardiac option allows better visualization of the peripheral and smaller cerebral arteries. SR-DLR with cardiac option can be beneficial for CT imaging of stent-assisted coil embolization and flow-diverting stent.
