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

objectTo evaluate the efficacy of three dose levels of the oral hepatobiliary manganese-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent CMC-001, and assess its safety profile and patient acceptability. MATERIALS AND

methodsAfter ethics committee approval, 32 healthy volunteers (males/females: 18/14) were included. Liver MRI was performed before and 3 h after ingestion of 0.8, 0.4, and 0.2 g of CMC-001 on separate occasions. Liver-to-muscle signal intensity (SI) ratio from baseline to post-contrast and image quality was assessed. Adverse drug reactions/adverse events (ADRs/AEs) and clinico-laboratory tests were monitored.

resultsThe increase in liver-to-muscle SI ratio was significantly higher after 0.8 g (0.696) compared to 0.4 g (0.458) and 0.2 g (0.223) (in all pair-wise comparisons, P < 0.0001). The overall image quality was superior after 0.8 g. ADRs/AEs were dose-related and predominantly of mild intensity.

conclusionLiver MRI using 0.8 g CMC-001 has the highest efficacy and still acceptable ADRs and should therefore be preferred.
