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

purposePositron range correction (PRC) can mitigate the effect of the larger positron range on the image quality of Gallium-68 (

methodsA TDSV PRC technique was developed employing CT-driven segmentation masks of different tissue types (soft tissue, bone, lung) and the corresponding tissue-specific positron range kernels. OSEM reconstructions were performed using the proposed TDSV PRC, a tissue-independent PRC, and without any PRC (non-PRC). For lesions identified in [

resultsA total of 93 lesions were analyzed (48 soft tissue, 35 bone, 10 lung lesions). For soft tissue lesions, TDSV and tissue-independent PRC showed similar increases in SUV
