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

Three-dimensional (3D) photoacoustic imaging (PAI) with detector arrays has shown superior imaging capabilities in biomedical applications. However, the quality of 3D PAI is often degraded due to reconstruction artifacts caused by sparse detectors. Existing iterative or deep learning-based methods are either time-consuming or require large training datasets, limiting their practical application. Here, we propose Zero-Shot Artifact2Artifact (ZS-A2A), a zero-shot self-supervised artifact removal method based on a super-lightweight network, which leverages the fact that patterns of artifacts are more sensitive to sensor data loss. By randomly dropping acquired PA data, it spontaneously generates subset data to reconstruct images, which in turn stimulates the network to learn the artifact patterns in reconstruction results, thus enabling zero-shot artifact removal. This approach requires neither training data nor prior knowledge of the artifacts, making it suitable for artifact removal for arbitrary detector array configurations. We validated ZS-A2A in both simulation study and
