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

objectivesThis study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of low-tube-potential ultra-high-resolution (UHR) coronary CT angiography (CCTA) using photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) in comparison to low-tube-potential CCTA using energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT), with a specific focus on the evaluation of coronary stents. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective study included 54 patients (88 stents) who underwent CCTA in UHR mode on PCD-CT at low tube potential (PCD

resultsPCD

conclusionCCTA using UHR mode in PCD-CT at low tube potential achieved superior image quality for implanted stent visualization as compared to EID-CT at low tube potential, while maintaining comparable radiation doses.
