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

We describe FDG PET/CT and PET/MRI findings in a case with severe stenosis of the left posterior cerebral artery and impaired perfusion of the left posterior cerebral artery territory as evidenced by CT angiography and CT perfusion. FDG PET/CT and PET/MRI showed a wedge-shaped intense activity in the left posterior cerebral artery territory with mild parenchymal atrophy and no infarction. The intense FDG activity in the left posterior cerebral artery territory may be caused by activation of glucose transporters and elevated glycolytic activity as compensation for hypoperfusion resulting from the stenosis of the left posterior cerebral artery.
