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

The purpose of this study was to develop detailed and realistic models of the cortical and trabecular bones in the spine, ribs, and sternum and incorporate them into the library of virtual human phantoms (XCAT). Cortical bone was modeled by 3D morphological erosion of XCAT homogenously defined bones with an average thickness measured from the CT dataset upon which each individual XCAT phantom was based. The trabecular texture was modeled using a power law synthesis algorithm where the parameters were tuned using high-resolution anatomical images of the Human Visible Female. The synthesized bone textures were added into the XCAT phantoms. To qualitatively evaluate the improved realism of the bone modeling, CT simulations of the XCAT phantoms were acquired with and without the textured bone modeling. The 3D power spectrum of the anatomical images exhibited a power law behavior (R
