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

Purpose: To explore the potential of artificial intelligence-assisted compressed sensing (ACS) technique, when compared with that of conventional parallel imaging (PI) technique, in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) simulation for head and neck cancer radiation therapy. Methods and Materials: Fifty-two patients with pathologically confirmed head and neck cancer underwent MRI simulation using a 3.0-T MRI simulation system. For each patient, axial T1-weighted gradient spin echo, T2-weighted fast spin echo sequence, and postcontrast and postcontrast fat-suppressed T1-weighted gradient spin echo sequence were obtained by ACS and PI. Acquisition time, signal-to-noise ratio, contrast-to-noise ratio, and image quality of both sets of MRI simulation images were compared. Image quality analysis was scored with lesion detection, margin sharpness of lesions, artifacts, and overall image quality using the 5-point Likert scale. Moreover, tumor target volume acquired from fusion images of simulation computed tomography with simulation MRI by ACS and from fusion images by PI were compared. Dice similarity coefficient of gross tumor target between fusion images by ACS and those by PI were also measured. Results: Acquisition time of MRI simulation by ACS was significantly shorter than that by PI, whether for the time of individual sequence or the total acquisition time ( Conclusions: Compared to PI, ACS can significantly accelerate MRI simulation for head and neck cancer radiation therapy without compromising image quality and degrading the guidance role of tumor target delineation.
