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: The value of ultra-low-activity 2-[ Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from April 2019 to May 2021 in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. A total of 49 patients with hepatic malignancies, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (n=13) or intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) (n=36), underwent 60-min dynamic PET imaging, with 15 undergoing full-activity Results: There was a nonsignificant difference in the kinetic metrics ( Conclusions: The results of this single-center study indicate that the performance of ultra-low-activity PET imaging is comparable to that of full-activity imaging in patients with hepatic malignancies.
