Review in Journal of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Several reviews on specific topics related to positron emission tomography (PET) ranging in complexity from introductory to highly technical have already been published. This introduction to the analysis of PET data was written as a simple guide of the different phases of analysis of a given PET dataset, from acquisition to preprocessing, to the final data analysis. Although sometimes issues specific to PET in neuroimaging will be mentioned for comparison, most of the examples and applications provided will refer to oncology. Due to the limitations of space we couldn't address each issue comprehensively but, rather, we provided a general overview of each topic together with the references that the interested reader should consult. We will assume a familiarity with the basic principles of PET imaging.
