Canine regional gastric blood flow measurement using perfusion computed tomography.
Article in Experimental animals, 2025. 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
This study aimed to determine the feasibility of using perfusion computed tomography (CT) to assess blood flow in different regions of the stomach in dogs. Dynamic perfusion CT scans were conducted on five beagle dogs, and blood flow analysis was performed using the maximum slope and Patlak plot methods. The findings revealed significant variations in blood flow among the fundus, body, and pylorus of the stomach. Specifically, the body showed approximately 1.3 times higher blood flow than the fundus and approximately 5 times higher blood flow than the pylorus. There were no significant differences in blood flow between the two analysis algorithms. The findings suggest that gastric perfusion CT can accurately detect variations in blood flow within the stomach. Using the maximum slope method for analysis allows for noninvasive and rapid measurement of gastric blood flow. This technique may have clinical applications in detecting submucosal diseases that are challenging to identify with endoscopies and serve as a valuable noninvasive tool for longitudinal observations in experimental animal studies.
