Expert opinions in nuclear medicine: Finding the "holy grail" in infection imaging.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Nuclear medicine imaging techniques are now widely accepted and increasingly used for diagnosing and treatment monitoring of infectious and inflammatory diseases. The latter has been exemplified by numerous recent clinical guidelines in which PET imaging is now part of the diagnostic flowcharts. In this perspective paper we discuss the current available guidelines, the current limitations, and we provide the future aims of research to achieve the holy grail in nuclear medicine: the differentiation between infection, inflammation and malignancy.
