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

objectiveThis study investigated the value of fluorine-18 fludeoxyglucose (

methodsWe analyzed 74 LNs that were suspicious for metastasis. These LNs were measured for coefficient of variation (CV) of

resultsMultivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that a high CV (hazard ratio, 20.97; 95% confidence interval, 2.26-194.62; p = 0.007) was an independent predictor of metastatic LNs. However, receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis (p = 0.278) and net reclassification (p = 0.539) were unable to show improved diagnostic performance by addition of CV to SUV
