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

purposeMedical physics computed tomography (CT) practice involves measurements to determine CTDI

methodsThe body and head CTDI phantoms were supported on the gantry shroud with brackets attached to the phantom. The phantom is above the tabletop and remains stationary during helical scans as the table moves beneath the phantom. With the phantom stationary, the CTDI

resultsFor both the head and body CTDI phantom the agreement between the axial and helical CTDI

conclusionsBody and head CTDI
