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

purposeThe aim of this study was to assess the impact of the deep learning reconstruction (DLR) with single-energy metal artifact reduction (SEMAR) (DLR-S) technique in pelvic helical computed tomography (CT) images for patients with metal hip prostheses and compare it with DLR and hybrid iterative reconstruction (IR) with SEMAR (IR-S). MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective study included 26 patients (mean age 68.6 ± 16.6 years, with 9 males and 17 females) with metal hip prostheses who underwent a CT examination including the pelvis. Axial pelvic CT images were reconstructed using DLR-S, DLR, and IR-S. In one-by-one qualitative analyses, two radiologists evaluated the degree of metal artifacts, noise, and pelvic structure depiction. In side-by-side qualitative analyses (DLR-S vs. IR-S), the two radiologists evaluated metal artifacts and overall quality. By placing regions of interest on the bladder and psoas muscle, the standard deviations of their CT attenuation were recorded, and the artifact index was calculated based on them. Results were compared between DLR-S vs. DLR and DLR vs. IR-S using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.

resultsIn one-by-one qualitative analyses, metal artifacts and structure depiction in DLR-S were significantly better than those in DLR; however, between DLR-S and IR-S, significant differences were noted only for reader 1. Image noise in DLR-S was rated as significantly reduced compared with that in IR-S by both readers. In side-by-side analyses, both readers rated that the DLR-S images are significantly better than IR-S images regarding overall image quality and metal artifacts. The median (interquartile range) of the artifact index for DLR-S was 10.1 (4.4-16.0) and was significantly better than those for DLR (23.1, 6.5-36.1) and IR-S (11.4, 7.8-17.9).

conclusionDLR-S provided better pelvic CT images in patients with metal hip prostheses than IR-S and DLR.
