Quantum Iterative Reconstruction for Low-Dose Ultra-High-Resolution Photon-Counting Detector CT of the Lung.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 35 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
The aim of this study was to characterize image quality and to determine the optimal strength levels of a novel iterative reconstruction algorithm (quantum iterative reconstruction, QIR) for low-dose, ultra-high-resolution (UHR) photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) of the lung. Images were acquired on a clinical dual-source PCD-CT in the UHR mode and reconstructed with a sharp lung reconstruction kernel at different strength levels of QIR (QIR-1 to QIR-4) and without QIR (QIR-off). Noise power spectrum (NPS) and target transfer function (TTF) were analyzed in a cylindrical phantom. 52 consecutive patients referred for low-dose UHR chest PCD-CT were included (CTDI
