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

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy enables detection of paramagnetic centers generated in solids by ionising radiation. In the last years, the ubiquity of glass in personal utility items increased significance of fortuities retrospective dosimetry based on EPR in glass parts of mobile phones and watches. Despite of fading of the signals and their susceptibility to light, it enables dosimetry at medical triage level of 1-2 Gy. In this article information relevant for assessment of applicability and planning of the EPR dosimetry is presented-particularly at dose levels typical for radiation accidents. Reported data on fading of the radiation-induced spectral components are presented and compared. Effects of light on background spectra and on the dosimetric signals are also presented. It is concluded that when properly accounting for the fading and for the obscuring effects of light, the EPR dosimetry in glasses from mobile phones and watches can be used in dose assessment after radiation accidents.
