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

Photogrammetry scans has directed attention to the development of advanced camera systems to improve the creation of three-dimensional (3D) models, especially for educational and medical-related purposes. This could be a potential cost-effective method for neuroanatomy education, especially when access to laboratory-based learning is limited. The aim of this study was to describe a new photogrammetry system based on a 5 Digital Single-Lens Reflex (DSLR) cameras setup to optimize accuracy of neuroanatomical 3D models. One formalin-fixed brain and specimen and one dry skull were used for dissections and scanning using the photogrammetry technique. After each dissection, the specimens were placed inside a new MedCreator® scanner (MedReality, Thyng, Chicago, IL) to be scanned with the final 3D model being displayed on SketchFab® (Epic, Cary, NC) and MedReality® platforms. The scanner consisted of 5 cameras arranged vertically facing the specimen, which was positioned on a platform in the center of the scanner. The new multi-camera system contains automated software packages, which allowed for quick rendering and creation of a high-quality 3D models. Following uploading the 3D models to the SketchFab® and MedReality® platforms for display, the models can be freely manipulated in various angles and magnifications in any devices free of charge for users. Therefore, photogrammetry scans with this new multi-camera system have the potential to enhance the accuracy and resolution of the 3D models, along with shortening creation time of the models. This system can serve as an important tool to optimize neuroanatomy education and ultimately, improve patient outcomes.
