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

background[

methodsFifty-six lesions were segmented from baseline [

resultsMTVs from the SUV4.0 method were least sensitive to the use of different reconstructions (MTV ratio: median = 1.01, interquartile range = [0.96-1.10]). After ComBat harmonization, an improved agreement of MTVs among different reconstructions was found for most segmentation methods. The regular implementation of ComBat ('Regular ComBat') using non-transformed distributions resulted in less accurate and precise MTV alignments than a version using log-transformed datasets ('Log-transformed ComBat').

conclusionMTV depends on both segmentation method and reconstruction methods. ComBat reduces reconstruction dependent MTV variability, especially when log-transformation is used to account for the non-normal distribution of MTVs.
