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

Background: To investigate the level of agreement in the measurement of coronary artery calcification among radiology technicians and radiology specialists. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 544 cases in the Radiology Department of Al-Zahra Hospital in Isfahan in 2021. The archives of heart computed tomography scans were reviewed, and coronary artery calcium scores (CACS) reported by radiology technicians and radiologists were marked and compared. Results: The level of agreement of the score measured by two evaluators in the whole sample is equal to intracluster correlation coefficient = 0.996 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.995-0.997) ( Conclusion: The results of our study demonstrate a high level of agreement regarding CACS between technicians and radiologists.
