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

To evaluate the limits of 1st-generation dual-source photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) and 3rd-generation dual-source energy-integrating-detector (EID-CT) regarding imaging of advanced stage peripheral arterial disease (ASPAD) of the femoral runoff. One human cadaver with ASPAD of the superficial femoral arteries was surgically prepared to establish continuous extracorporeal perfusion of the right upper leg. In addition to one stent already in place, three more stents were deployed in positions with severe calcification and stenosis to create thirteen different scenarios of ASPAD. CT angiographies with different radiation dose (CTDI
