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

PET imaging is an important diagnostic tool for management of patients with cancer and other diseases. Medical decisions based on quantitative PET information could potentially benefit from the availability of tools for evaluation of associated uncertainties. Raw PET data can be viewed as a sample from an inhomogeneous Poisson process so there is the possibility to directly apply bootstrapping to raw projection-domain list-mode data. Unfortunately this is computationally impractical, particularly if data reconstruction is iterative or the acquisition protocol is dynamic. We develop a flexible statistical linear model analysis to be used with multi-frame PET image data to create valid bootstrap samples. The technique is illustrated using data from dynamic PET studies with fluoro-deoxyglucose (FDG) and fluoro-thymidine (FLT) in brain and breast cancer patients. As is often the case with dynamic PET studies, data have been archived without raw list-mode information. Using the bootstrapping technique maps of kinetic parameters and associated uncertainties are obtained. The quantitative performance of the approach is assessed by simulation. The proposed image-domain bootstrap is found to substantially match the projection-domain alternative. Analysis of results points to a close relation between relative uncertainty in voxel-level kinetic parameters and local reconstruction error. This is consistent with statistical theory.
