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

The purpose of this study was to acquire up-to-date information on nuclear medicine treatments in Europe and on the implementation of the requirements of the Basic Safety Standards Directive in HERCA Heads of the European Radiological Protection Competent Authorities (HERCAs) member states. An electronic survey was distributed to competent authorities of 32 HERCA member states. The questionnaire addressed 33 explicitly considered treatments using 13 different radionuclides, and for each treatment, a similar set of questions was included. Questions covered the use of treatments, hospitalisation of patients and radioactive waste management related to therapeutic nuclear medicine involving other radionuclides than the well-known
