Tc-99m Glucoheptonate Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography-Computed Tomography for Detection of Recurrent Glioma: A Prospective Comparison with N-13 Ammonia Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography.
Article in Indian journal of nuclear medicine : IJNM : the official journal of the Society of Nuclear Medicine, India. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purpose of the studyTo assess the efficacies of Tc-99m glucoheptonate single photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography (Tc-99m GHA SPECT-CT) and N-13 ammonia positron emission tomography-computed tomography (N-13 NH MATERIALS AND
methodsFifty-five consecutive, histologically proven, and previously treated glioma patients (age, 38.9 ± 12.2 years; 61.8% males) presenting with clinical suspicion of recurrence were evaluated with Tc-99m GHA SPECT-CT and N-13 NH
resultsBased on the reference standard, 28/55 (50.9%) patients had recurrence. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy of Tc-99m GHA SPECT-CT, and N-13 NH
conclusionTc-99m GHA SPECT-CT is an alternative imaging modality equally efficacious as N-13 NH
