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

Limited to the power of the light source in ophthalmic optical coherence tomography (OCT), the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the reconstructed images is usually lower than OCT used in other fields. As a result, improvement of the SNR is required. The traditional method is averaging several images at the same lateral position. However, the image registration average costs too much time, which limits its real-time imaging application. In response to this problem, graphics processing unit (GPU)-side kernel functions are applied to accelerate the reconstruction of the OCT signals in this paper. The SNR of the images reconstructed from different numbers of A-scans and B-scans were compared. The results demonstrated that: 1) There is no need to realize the axial registration with every A-scan. The number of the A-scans used to realize axial registration is suitable to set as ∼25, when the A-line speed was set as ∼12.5kHz. 2) On the basis of ensuring the quality of the reconstructed images, the GPU can achieve 43× speedup compared with CPU.
