Design and evaluation of gapless curved scintillator arrays for simultaneous high-resolution and high-sensitivity brain PET.
Article in Physics in medicine and biology, 2019. 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
Brain PET scanners that simultaneously provide high-resolution across the field-of-view and high-sensitivity can be constructed using detectors based on SiPM arrays coupled to both ends of scintillator arrays with finely segmented and long detector elements. To reduce the dead space between detector modules and hence improve the sensitivity of PET scanners, crystal arrays with curved surfaces are proposed. In this paper, the performance of a proof-of-concept detector module with nine detector submodules based on SiPMs coupled to both ends of a curved LYSO array with a pitch size of 1.0 × 1.0 mm
