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

Background Compared with energy-integrating detector (EID) CT, the improved resolution of photon-counting detector (PCD) CT coupled with high-energy virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) has been shown to decrease calcium blooming on images in phantoms and cadaveric specimens. Purpose To determine the impact of dual-source PCD CT on visual and quantitative estimation of percent diameter luminal stenosis compared with dual-source EID CT in patients. Materials and Methods This prospective study recruited consecutive adult patients from an outpatient facility between January and March 2022. Study participants underwent clinical dual-source EID coronary CT angiography followed by a research dual-source PCD CT examination. For PCD CT, multienergy data were used to create VMIs at 50 and 100 keV. Two readers independently reviewed EID CT images followed by PCD CT images after a washout period. Readers visually graded the most severe stenosis in terms of percent diameter luminal stenosis for the left main, left anterior descending, right, and circumflex coronary arteries, unblinded to scanner type. Quantitative measures of percent stenosis were made using commercial software. Visual and quantitative estimates of percent stenosis were compared between EID CT and PCD CT using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results A total of 25 participants (median age, 59 years [range, 18-78 years]; 16 male participants) were enrolled. On EID CT images, readers 1 and 2 identified 39 and 32 luminal stenoses, respectively, with a percent diameter luminal stenosis greater than 0%. Visual estimates of percent stenosis were lower on PCD CT images than EID CT images (reader 1: median 20.6% [IQR, 8.8%-61.2%] vs 31.8% [IQR, 12.9%-69.7%],
