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

aims

methodsThe planar image and transverse images of IQ-SPECT with attenuation and scatter corrections (ACSC) and without ACSC (NC) were obtained. Multi-planar reconstruction and ray-summation processing were applied to create IQ-planar images with NC and ACSC. Linear regression between the measured HMR from the planar image and the mathematically calculated HMR was used to calibrate HMR to standardized values.

resultsScatterplots and linear regression lines between planar and IQ-planar HMRs before and after cross-calibration showed systematic differences in both NC and ACSC conditions. The IQ-planar HMR with NC and ACSC was significantly higher compared with that of the conventional planar image. However, the IQ-planar HMR with NC and ACSC after cross-calibration was similar to the standardized HMR calculated by planar image.

conclusionThe IQ-planar HMR using the new ray-summation processing method could be used along with the conventional planar HMR.
