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

objectiveTo evaluate the impact of radiation dose reduction on image quality in patients with metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasties (THAs) using model-based iterative reconstruction (MBIR) combined with orthopaedic metal artefact reduction (O-MAR). MATERIALS AND

methodsPatients with metal-on-metal THAs received a pelvic CT with a full (FD) and a reduced radiation dose (RD) with -20%, -40%, -57%, or -80% CT radiation dose respectively, when assigned to group 1, 2, 3, or 4 respectively. FD acquisitions were reconstructed with iterative reconstruction, iDose

resultsSeventy-six patients were randomly assigned to one of the four groups. While reducing radiation dose by 20%, 40%, 57%, or 80% in combination with IMR, CT numbers remained constant. Compared with iDose

conclusionIn RD IMR with O-MAR images, CT numbers remained constant, noise decreased and contrast-to-noise ratios between muscle and fat increased compared with FD iDose
