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

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to accurately estimate proton stopping power ratio (SPR), relative electron density Methods: Empirical relationships between computed tomography (CT) number and SPR, Results: The proposed method gave modeling root mean square error (RMSE) near 1% at maximum for the case of SPR and Conclusion: The proposed method proves to be more flexible and robust among all presented methods since it has lower testing error in most cases and can be improved based on data using the machine learning algorithm. The algorithm can also improve estimation by adjusting the model as well as aid in automation and it's easy to implement.
