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
Respiratory motions in small animals PET cause image degradation during reconstruction. This work aims to develop a motion compensated 4D-PET reconstruction method using accurate motion corrections and attenuation corrections from 4D-CBCT images reconstructed using a simultaneous motion estimation and image reconstruction (SMEIR) method. Projections of 4D-CBCT were calculated using a ray-tracing method on a digital 4D rat phantom, and list-mode data of 4D-PET with matched respiratory phases were simulated using the GATE Monte Carlo package. The respiratory rate was set at 1.0 second per cycle with 10 phases of 30 projection images each. 4D-CBCT images were reconstructed using the SMEIR method and motion information and linear attenuation from 4D-CBCT were subsequently used for motion compensated 4D-PET reconstruction and attenuation corrections. We quantitatively evaluate the reconstructed 4D-PET using the errors of tumor volume and standard uptake values of tumors with different sizes. The tumor motion was successfully reconstructed and showed good agreement with the original phantom. The proposed method reduced tumor volume errors and standard uptake value errors. For tumor diameters of 3.0, 4.5, and 6.0 mm, the tumor volume errors are 32.5%, 29.2% and 19.4% respectively with motion compensation and 45.1%, 37.5% and 20.2% respectively without compensation.
