CZT-based photon-counting-detector CT with deep-learning reconstruction: image quality and diagnostic confidence for lung tumor assessment.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
purposeThis is a preliminary analysis of one of the secondary endpoints in the prospective study cohort. The aim of this study is to assess the image quality and diagnostic confidence for lung cancer of CT images generated by using cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT)-based photon-counting-detector-CT (PCD-CT) and comparing these super-high-resolution (SHR) images with conventional normal-resolution (NR) CT images. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwenty-five patients (median age 75 years, interquartile range 66-78 years, 18 men and 7 women) with 29 lung nodules overall (including two patients with 4 and 2 nodules, respectively) were enrolled to undergo PCD-CT. Three types of images were reconstructed: a 512 × 512 matrix with adaptive iterative dose reduction 3D (AIDR 3D) as the NR
