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

Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) has been extensively used in the restaging and assessment of treatment response for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, CECT does not provide information regarding the specific functionality of lesions. A patient (56 years old, female) was previously admitted to the present institution, with bilateral cervical masses. Following numerous cycles of chemotherapy, a stable disease status was confirmed using CECT. In conjunction with CECT imaging results, contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) demonstrated important semi-functional information regarding blood perfusion, during the revision of treatment assessment.
