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

introductionThis study investigated the performance of SPECT myocardial blood flow (MBF) quantitation lacking full physical corrections (All Corr) in dynamic SPECT (DySPECT) images.

methodsEleven healthy normal volunteers (HVT) and twenty-four patients with angiography-documented CAD were assessed. All Corr in

resultsIn HVT group, NC diminished 2-fold flow uniformity with the most degraded quality (15%-18% reduced R

conclusionsUncorrected physical interference in DySPECT images can extensively impact the performance of MBF quantitation. Full physical corrections should be considered to warrant this tool for clinical utilization.
