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

Quantitative positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is employed with several measurement protocols all relying on the a priori determination of the input function (IF). The standard technique to determine IF is by blood sampling. However, a unique IF determined in a subject for a given PET study, either defined by sampling or in the images, and commonly utilized for all analyzed tissues in that study equally at rest and during interventions, is expected to provoke biases in the rate constants and in tissue blood volume. The determination of a specific IF at the site of the tissue to be analyzed enhances PET accuracy and renders PET imaging less invasive.
