Photon-Counting CT in the Head and Neck: Current Applications and Future Prospects.
Review in AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07603167 (p-PHOTOLARYNX- ANTHEM), which is not on this map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
Photon-counting detectors (PCDs) represent a major milestone in the evolution of CT imaging. CT scanners using PCD systems have already been shown to generate images with substantially greater spatial resolution, superior iodine contrast-to-noise ratio, and reduced artifact compared with conventional energy-integrating detector-based systems. These benefits can be achieved with considerably decreased radiation dose. Recent studies have focused on the advantages of PCD-CT scanners in numerous anatomic regions, particularly the coronary and cerebral vasculature, pulmonary structures, and musculoskeletal imaging. However, PCD-CT imaging is also anticipated to be a major advantage for head and neck imaging. In this paper, we review current clinical applications of PCD-CT in head and neck imaging, with a focus on the temporal bone, facial bones, and paranasal sinuses; minor arterial vasculature; and the spectral capabilities of PCD systems.
