Cinematic rendering: a new imaging approach for ulcerative colitis.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
purposeCinematic rendering (CR) is a new technique for visualizing volumetric three-dimensional data. The purpose of this study was to investigate the added value of CR to conventional computed tomography (CT) in the diagnosis and evaluation of ulcerative colitis (UC). MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively evaluated the CT data of 48 patients (33 men, 15 women; mean age, 44.35 years) with a definitive diagnosis of UC. All patients underwent conventional CT and CR, and had colonoscopy results. Two radiologists independently reviewed the conventional CT images first without and then with CR. Then, the imaging value of CR was evaluated by both radiologists together. The readers were blinded to the disease extent. The diagnostic performance of CR for both readers was assessed by receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
resultsThere were 23 cases of mild to moderate UC and 25 cases of severe UC, which were divided into two groups. Both readers showed improved diagnostic performance with the addition of CR (the area under the ROC curve improved from 0.676 to 0.804, P = 0.0255, and from 0.679 to 0.826, P = 0.0049, for readers 1 and 2, respectively). Full view of the lesion and contrast enhancement was not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). Increased mesenteric vascularity and the comb sign on CR were more clearly observed in the severe group (P < 0.05).
conclusionAdding CR to conventional CT improved the diagnostic performance of evaluating the extent of UC.
