Study on virtual tooth image generation utilizing CF-fill and Pix2pix for data augmentation.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Traditional dental prosthetics require a significant amount of work, labor, and time. To simplify the process, a method to convert teeth scan images, scanned using an intraoral scanner, into 3D images for design was developed. Furthermore, several studies have used deep learning to automate dental prosthetic processes. Tooth images are required to train deep learning models, but they are difficult to use in research because they contain personal patient information. Therefore, we propose a method for generating virtual tooth images using image-to-image translation (pix2pix) and contextual reconstruction fill (CR-Fill). Various virtual images can be generated using pix2pix, and the images are used as training images for CR-Fill to compare the real image with the virtual image to ensure that the teeth are well-shaped and meaningful. The experimental results demonstrate that the images generated by the proposed method are similar to actual images. In addition, only using virtual images as training data did not perform well; however, using both real and virtual images as training data yielded nearly identical results to using only real images as training data.
