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

Talbot-Lau interferometry (TLI) provides additional contrast modes for x-ray imaging that are complementary to conventional absorption radiography. TLI is particularly interesting because it is one of the few practical methods for realizing phase contrast with x-rays that is compatible with large-spot high power x-ray sources. A novel micro array anode structured target (MAAST) x-ray source offers several advantages for TLI over the conventional combination of an extended x-ray source coupled with an absorption grating including higher flux and larger field of view, and these advantages become more pronounced for x-ray energies in excess of 30 keV. A Monte Carlo simulation was performed to determine the optimal parameters for a MAAST source for use with TLI. It was found that the both spatial distribution of x-ray production and the number of x-ray produced in the MAAST have a strong dependence on the incidence angle of the electron beam.
