Single-energy metal artifact reduction for helical computed tomography of the pelvis in patients with metal hip prostheses.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
purposeTo compare the quality of helical computed tomography (CT) images of the pelvis in patients with metal hip prostheses reconstructed using adaptive iterative dose reduction (AIDR) and AIDR with single-energy metal artifact reduction (SEMAR-A). MATERIALS AND
methodsThis retrospective study included 28 patients (mean age, 64.6 ± 11.4 years; 6 men and 22 women). CT images were reconstructed using AIDR and SEMAR-A. Two radiologists evaluated the extent of metal artifacts and the depiction of structures in the pelvic region and looked for mass lesions. A radiologist placed a region of interest within the bladder and recorded CT attenuation.
resultsThe metal artifacts were significantly reduced in SEMAR-A as compared to AIDR (p < 0.0001). The depictions of the bladder, ureter, prostate/uterus, rectum, and pelvic sidewall were significantly better with SEMAR-A than with AIDR (p < 0.02). All lesions were diagnosed with SEMAR-A, while some were not diagnosed with AIDR. The median and interquartile range (in parentheses) of CT attenuation within the bladder for AIDR were -34.0 (-46.6 to -15.0) Hounsfield units (HU) and were more variable than those seen for SEMAR-A [5.4 (-1.3 to 11.1)] HU (p = 0.033).
conclusionIn comparison with AIDR, SEMAR-A provided pelvic CT images of significantly better quality for patients with metal hip prostheses.
