Improved Quantification of MicroPET/CT Imaging Using CT-derived Scaling Factors.
Article in Research square, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: Combined micro-PET/CT scanners are widely employed to investigate models of brain disorders in rodents using PET-based coregistration. We examined if CT-based coregistration could improve estimates of brain dimensions and consequently estimates of nondisplaceable binding potential (BP Procedures: PET and CT scans were acquired on 5 female and 5 male CD-1 mice with PET and CT scans were acquired on 5 female and 5 male CD-1 mice with 3-[ Results: The PET-based approaches showed various degrees of underestimations of scaling factors in the posterior-anterior-direction compared to PTCT, which resulted in negatively proportional overestimation of radioactivity in the cerebellum (reference region) up to 20%, and proportional, more prominent underestimation of BP Conclusions: The results indicated that conventional PET-based coregistration approaches could yield biased estimates of BP
