Estimation of Tissue Permeability in MRI Images by Empirical Mode Decomposition Method.
Article in Journal of biomedical physics & engineering, 2024. 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
Background: The precise evaluation of tissue permeability using the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) method requires high-quality images. Due to noisy acquired dynamic MRI images, some methods of processing are required to obtain the imaging detail of interest. Objective: This study aimed to implement Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) to the Lock-Locker (LL) images to improve the permeability of the normal tissue and tumor region, evaluated by the Quantitative Autoradiography (QAR) method. Material and Methods: In this experimental and analytical study, the EMD method was used to improve the tissue permeability from the LL- MRI images of the rat brain. The EMD components were extracted from LL images, and the resulting components were combined using different weighting factors. The tissue permeability was derived by extracting the information of each pixel from the LL image series and fitting curves to the data. Results: The optimum weighted combination factors images were 0.7 for the middle and low-frequency components and 1 for the high-frequency component. The calculated tissue permeability was between 0.0023-0.0043 (ml.min Conclusion: The estimation of the permeability of tumors in the rat brain with the LL images and the processed LL images by the EMD method shows that the EMD method and the weighted combination of frequency components can improve the permeability calculation in the LL images for the rat brain. The results of permeability estimation by EMD due to noise reduction of LL images are closer to the values obtained from the Quantitative Autoradiography (QAR).
