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

Analyses of structural MRI (sMRI) data depend on robust upstream data quality control (QC). It is also crucial that researchers seek to retain maximal amounts of data to ensure reproducible, generalizable models and to avoid wasted effort, including that of participants. The time-consuming and difficult task of manual QC evaluation has prompted the development of tools for the automatic assessment of brain sMRI scans. Existing tools have proved particularly valuable in this age of Big Data; as datasets continue to grow, reducing execution time for QC evaluation will be of considerable benefit. The development of Deep Learning (DL) models for artifact detection in structural MRI scans offers a promising avenue toward fast, accurate QC evaluation. In this study, we trained an interpretable Deep Learning model, ProtoPNet, to classify minimally preprocessed 2D slices of scans that had been manually annotated with a refined quality assessment (ABIDE 1;
