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

backgroundThis study aimed to retrospectively evaluate the feasibility of total-body

methodsThe clinical and preoperative imaging data of patients with CRCs were collected. All patients underwent a 300-s list-mode total-body

resultsAll 34 recruited patients with CRCs had single colorectal lesions, and the diagnosis was verified pathologically. Of the total patients, 11 had liver metastases, and 113 liver metastases were detected. The 10-s dataset could not be evaluated due to high noise, regardless of whether it was filtered by Gaussian or DL image filters. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the liver and mediastinal blood pool in the images acquired for 10, 20, 30, and 60 s with a Gaussian filter was lower than that of the 300-s images (P < 0.01). The DL filter significantly improved the SNR and visual image quality score compared to the Gaussian filter (P < 0.01). There was no statistical difference in the SNR of the liver and mediastinal blood pool, SUVmax and TBR of CRCs and liver metastases, and the number of detectable liver metastases between the 20- and 30-s DL image filter and 300-s images with the Gaussian filter (P > 0.05).

conclusionsThe DL filter can significantly improve the image quality of total-body
