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

[(18)F]fallypride is a high-affinity dopamine D2/3 receptor tracer with the ability to reliably quantify D2/3 receptor sites in both striatal and corticolimbic regions. The translational potential of [(18)F]fallypride imaging is, however, limited by the lengthy scanning sessions (60-80 minutes duration over a total of 3-4 hours) required by current protocols. The aims of our study were to adapt [(18)F]fallypride imaging for use in clinical populations with neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders, by reducing the duration of individual scanning sessions; and to establish the reproducibility and reliability of our adapted protocol in healthy older people. Eight participants (five male and three female; mean age=75.87±4.39 years) were scanned twice, 4-6 weeks apart. [(18)F]fallypride binding potential was determined from image data collected during three sampling times: 0-30; 60-90; and 210-240 minutes post injection. High reproducibility and reliability (test-retest variability <8%; intraclass correlation coefficient >0.8) were observed in all but the prefrontal regions, and remained so when sampling times were reduced to 20 minutes (0-20; 70-90; 220-240 minutes). The adapted protocol is feasible for use across neuropsychiatric disorders in which dopamine has been implicated and is sufficiently sensitive to detect within-subject changes between 2.7% and 5.5% in striatal and limbic regions.
