Impact of iterative reconstruction on CT coronary calcium quantification.
Trial report in European radiology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 papers.
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.
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
objectivesWe evaluated the influence of sinogram-affirmed iterative reconstruction (SAFIRE) on the coronary artery calcium (CAC) score by computed tomography (CT). MATERIALS AND
methodsSeventy patients underwent CAC imaging by 128-slice dual-source CT. CAC volume, mass and Agatston score were calculated from images reconstructed by filtered back projection (FBP) without and with incremental degrees of the SAFIRE algorithm (10-50 %). We used the repeated measuring test and the Steel-Dwass test for multiple comparisons of values and the difference ratio among different SAFIRE groups using the FBP as reference.
resultsThe median Agatston score (range) decreased with incremental SAFIRE degrees: 163 (0.1 - 3,393.3), 158.4 (0.3 - 3,079.3), 137.7 (0.1 - 2,978.0), 120.6 (0 - 2,783.6), 102.6 (0 - 2,468.4) and 84.1 (0 - 2,186.9) for 0 % (FBP), 10 %, 20 %, 30 %, 40 % and 50 % SAFIRE, respectively (P < 0.05). In comparison with FBP, CAC volume (from 8.1 % to 47.7 %), CAC mass (from 5.3 % to 44.7 %) and CAC Agatston score (from 7.3 % to 48.4 %) all decreased with increasing SAFIRE from 10 % to 50 %, respectively (P < 0.05). High-grade SAFIRE resulted in the disappearance of detectable calcium in three cases with low calcium burden.
conclusionSAFIRE noise reduction techniques significantly affected the CAC, which potentially alters perceived cardiovascular risk.
