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

Quality management systems (QMS) in nuclear medicine is an essential component of the Quality program and is instrumental in the safe delivery of a high standard clinical service. The IAEA QUANUM program is a nuclear medicine specific audit program that can be used to assess the standards of a nuclear medicine department and its service delivery. Regular internal and external audits are encouraged as part of the QMS.
