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

purposeTo quantitatively evaluate longitudinal changes in water and lipid in knee bone marrow with and without bone marrow edema-like lesions (BMELs) in subjects with acutely ruptured anterior cruciate ligaments (ACLs) or osteoarthritis (OA) using three-dimensional magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (3D MRSI). MATERIAL AND

methodsTen ACL and 10 OA subjects who presented with BMEL and seven BMEL-free controls were scanned at 3T. All ACL and OA subjects had one-year follow-up scans. 3D MRSI was acquired in BMEL and adjacent bone marrow, and water content (WC) and unsaturated lipid index (UI) were calculated in each region of interest.

resultsAt baseline, ACL BMEL WC was significantly higher than ACL non-BMEL, OA BMEL, and control WC; ACL non-BMEL WC, ACL BMEL UI, and OA BMEL WC were significantly higher than control. ACL BMEL WC decreased significantly one year post-reconstruction; UI decreased non-significantly (p=0.09). No significant changes in OA BMEL or ACL and OA non-BMEL WC and UI were observed.

conclusion3D MRSI is a powerful method of quantitatively assessing the biochemical composition of bone marrow in OA and ACL-injured knees, which may serve as imaging markers to improve comprehension of primary and secondary OA pathology.
