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
Clinical value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in identifying and diagnosing multiple cerebral glioma (MCG) from primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) was evaluated. A total of 21 patients with MCG diagnosed clinically and pathologically in Zhangzhou Municipal Hospital from March 2016 to April 2017 were selected as group A, and 30 patients with PCNSL diagnosed in Zhangzhou Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University during the same period as group B. Plain MRI, enhanced MRI and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) were performed in all patients, the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value of lesions was measured, and the diagnostic efficacy of ADC for MCG and PCNSL was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The incidence of hippocampus lesions, patchy and cystic lesions, and the heterogeneous signal of plain scan in group A was significantly higher than that in group B (P<0.05), and the incidence of basal ganglia lesions was significantly lower than that in group B (P<0.05). Mass lesions in group A were significantly less than those in group B (P<0.05). The ADC value of lesions in group A was significantly higher than that in contralateral normal white matter (P<0.05), the ADC value in group B was significantly lower than that in normal contralateral white matter (P<0.05), so the ADC value in group A was significantly higher than that in group B (P<0.05). The location, lesion shape and signal characteristic of MCG and PCNSL have their own specificity; there are significant differences in DWI signal and ADC color map signal intensity of the lesions; ADC has certain diagnostic value for MCG and PCNSL; the differential diagnosis of MCG from PCNSL by MRI is of great significance.
