Volumetric analysis of mandibular lesions with SPECT/CT: a pilot clinical study of maximum standardized uptake value.
Article in Polish journal of radiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Purpose: This study was designed to investigate mandibular lesions using volumetric analysis with bone single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT). Material and methods: Eight patients with mandibular lesions underwent SPECT/CT scan acquisition 4 hours after injection of Tc-99m hydroxymethylene diphosphonate (HMDP). Regarding volumetric analysis, maximum standar-dized uptake value (SUV) was obtained using software and a workstation (Q.Volumetrix MI and GEniE-Xeleris 4 DR, respectively). The localization and size of the volume of interest (VOI) can be drawn over the lesion, mesial, distal, and opposite side as normal using the CT, SPECT, and SPECT/CT transaxials, coronals, and sagittals as the anatomical reference. Q.Volumetrix MI can analyse SUV of lesions by organ segmentation using optional pan and zoom imaging. Then, the dosimetry software provided multiple quantitative data for a given VOI. Statistical analyses for the maximum SUV were performed by Mann-Whitney Results: Maximum SUVs for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw ( Conclusions: Volumetric analysis with SPECT/CT could be useful for the evaluation of mandibular lesions, such as detecting and surgical planning.
