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

purposeIn this study, a bias field correction workflow was proposed to improve the flexibility and generalizability of the generative adversarial network (GAN) model for abdominal cancer patients treated with a 0.35T magnetic resonance imaging linear accelerator (MR-LINAC) system.

methodsModel training was performed using brain MR images acquired on a 3T diagnostic scanner, while model testing was performed using abdominal MR images obtained using a 0.35T MR-LINAC system. The performance of the proposed workflow was first compared with the GAN model using root-mean-square error (RMSE), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), and structural similarity index measure (SSIM). To assess the impact of the workflow on image segmentation, it was also compared with the N4ITK algorithm. Segmentation was performed using the k-means clustering algorithm with three clusters corresponding to air, fat, and soft tissue. Segmentation accuracy was then evaluated using the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC).

resultsThe RMSE values were 30.59, 12.06, 10.37 for the bias field-corrupted images (I
