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

To study the value of dual energy computed tomography in distinguishing soft tissue infiltration from surrounding soft tissue edema in rabbit malignant bone tumor, a malignant bone tumor model was established through implantation of VX2 tumor fragments into the tibiae of rabbits. Tumor adjacent soft tissues were divided into 3 areas according to pathology and computed tomography images. Computed tomography spectral curve slopes and iodine and water concentrations were assessed. Statistical analyses were performed using the Mann-Whitney U test and t test. The spectral curve of the soft tissue infiltration areas has a slope (1.30 ± 0.41) higher than that of the soft tissue edema areas (0.71 ± 0.23; P < .001). The iodine concentration in the soft tissue infiltration areas (8.56 ± 2.15) was higher than that in the in soft tissue edema areas (6.09 ± 1.02; P < .001). Water concentration was similar in the soft tissue infiltration areas (1033.86 ± 10.50) to that of the edema areas (1031.45 ± 12.83; P < .05). Spectral curve analysis and iodine-water concentration are helpful in the differentiation of bone tumor soft tissue infiltration and soft tissue edema.
