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

purposeCharacterize and monitor treatment response in human papillomavirus (HPV) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) using intra-treatment (intra-TX) imaging metrics derived from intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI). MATERIALS AND

methodsThirty-four (30 HPV positive [+] and 4 HPV negative [-]) HNSCC patients underwent a total of 136 MRI including multi-b value DW-MRI (pretreatment [pre-TX] and intra-TX weeks 1, 2, and 3) at 3.0 Tesla. All patients were treated with chemo-radiation therapy. Monoexponential (yielding apparent diffusion coefficient [ADC]) and bi-exponential (yielding perfusion fraction [f], diffusion [D], and pseudo-diffusion [D*] coefficients) fits were performed on a region of interest and voxel-by-voxel basis, on metastatic neck nodes. Response was assessed using RECISTv1.1. The relative percentage change in D, f, and D* between the pre- and intra-TX weeks were used for hierarchical clustering. A Wilcoxon rank-sum test was performed to assess the difference in metrics within and between the complete response (CR) and non-CR groups.

resultsThe delta (Δ) change in volume (V)

conclusionAfter appropriate validation in a larger population, these IVIM imaging metrics may be useful for individualized treatment in HNSCC patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 2 J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2017;45:1013-1023.
