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: To compare the objective and subjective image quality and diagnostic performance for coronary stenosis of normal-dose model-based iterative reconstruction and reduced-dose super-resolution deep learning reconstruction in coronary CT angiography. Materials and Methods: This single-center retrospective study included 52 patients (mean age, 68 years ± 10 [SD]; 41 men) who underwent serial coronary CT angiography and subsequent invasive coronary angiography between January and November 2022. The first 25 patients were scanned with a standard dose using model-based iterative reconstruction. The last 27 patients were scanned with a reduced dose using super-resolution deep learning reconstruction. Per-patient objective and subjective image qualities were compared. Diagnostic performance of model-based iterative reconstruction and super-resolution deep learning reconstruction to diagnose significant stenosis on coronary angiography was compared per-vessel using receiver operating characteristics curve analysis. Results: The median tube current of super-resolution deep learning reconstruction was lower than that of model-based iterative reconstruction (median [IQR], 890 mA [680, 900] vs. 900 mA [895, 900], Conclusion: Our exploratory analysis suggests that super-resolution deep learning reconstruction could improve image quality with lower tube current settings than model-based iterative reconstruction with similar diagnostic performance to diagnose coronary stenosis in coronary CT angiography.
