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

Aim of this study was to assess the impact of virtual monoenergetic images (VMI) in combination and comparison with iterative metal artifact reduction (IMAR) on hip prosthesis-associated artifacts in photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT). Retrospectively, 33 scans with hip prosthesis-associated artifacts acquired during clinical routine on a PCD-CT between 08/2022 and 09/2022 were analyzed. VMI were reconstructed for 100-190 keV with and without IMAR, and compared to polychromatic images. Qualitatively, artifact extent and assessment of adjacent soft tissue were rated by two radiologists using 5-point Likert items. Quantitative assessment was performed measuring attenuation and standard deviation in most pronounced hypodense and hyperdense artifacts, artifact-impaired bone, muscle, vessels, bladder and artifact-free corresponding tissue. To quantify artifacts, an adjusted attenuation was calculated as the difference between artifact-impaired tissue and corresponding tissue without artifacts. Qualitative assessment improved for all investigated image reconstructions compared to polychromatic images (PI). VMI
