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

Direct conversion photon counting detectors (PCDs) using CdTe, CZT, or Si for the sensor material are being investigated and manufactured. Indirect conversion, scintillator-based PCDs have historically thought to be too slow for the high flux requirements of diagnostic CT. Recent scintillators investigated for e.g. PET applications are very fast and inspire us to rethink this paradigm. We evaluate the potential of a LaBr
