Determination of appropriate conversion factors for calculating size-specific dose estimates based on X-ray CT scout images after miscentering correction.
Article in Radiological physics and technology, 2019. 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
In this study, we proposed and evaluated the validity of an optimized size-specific dose estimate, a widely used index of radiation dose in X-ray computed tomography (CT) examinations. Based on miscentering correction of scout images, we determined the appropriate conversion factors (CF) by using a phantom. Scans were conducted using a multi-detector CT system (Aquilion ONE, Canon Medical Systems). Four cylindrical phantoms were taken in the anteroposterior (AP) and axial directions to determine the relationship between pixel value and water-equivalent length (L
