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

Computed tomography enables non-destructive phenotyping of fruit internal structure but traditionally requires hundreds of projections, limiting throughput. Under sparse-view conditions, conventional and learning-based methods both suffer from streaking artifacts and regional distortions that degrade trait quantification. This study present CitrusGS, an integrated framework that achieves high-fidelity 3D reconstruction and precise morphological phenotyping of citrus fruit from only 15 projections using radiative 3D Gaussian splatting. Our method employs sparse-point initialization, optimized loss composite, and dual-stage pruning to suppress artifacts while preserving anatomically critical details with significantly higer convergence efficiency. In the citrus fruit datasets, CitrusGS achieves 29.78 dB PSNR and 0.870 SSIM, outperforming corresponding baseline method by 1.58 dB and 0.067 in SSIM, and enables automated extraction of ten external and internal phenotypic traits with R
