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

objectiveThe purpose of this study was to compare the time-course of contrast-enhancement in spleen and liver using Exia 160 in comparison with Fenestra LC and VC in healthy mice. PROCEDURES: Healthy C57bl/6 mice were used in this study. Fenestra LC and VC was administered intravenously at a dose of 0.1 ml/20 g or 0.2 ml/20 g. Exia 160 at a dose of 0.05 ml/20 g or 0.1 ml/20 g. Each animal underwent a micro-CT scan before contrast injection (baseline) and immediately after contrast injection. Additional scans were performed at 1, 2, 3, 4, 24, and 48 h after contrast administration. The mice who received Exia 160 were also scanned after 15, 30, and 45 min.

resultsThe peak enhancement of Exia 160 occurred after 15 min for the spleen and after 30 min for the liver.

conclusionsExia 160 allows rapid spleen and liver enhancement. The high iodine content results in small injection volumes.
