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

The focus of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of incorporating Perlin noise, a method that has previously been used to model the tissue distribution of software breast phantoms, when creating a 'compressible' software breast phantom used in finite element analysis. Several compressible phantoms were created to represent different stages of aging in a virtual patient when younger, fibroglandular tissue is more prevalent than adipose tissue. During the ageing process, this ratio changes so that the breast contains more adipose tissue and less fibroglandular tissue. When simulating the compression of these phantoms, the determined reaction forces on the simulated compression plate increase with higher breast density. The resulting reaction forces on the compression plates are well above the values from in vivo measurements performed by our research group. However, when considering the differences between the procedures in the two studies, the simulated results are arguably comparable to the in vivo measurements.
