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

<strong>BACKGROUND</strong> The aim of this study was to examine the role of magnetic resonance imaging-diffusion weighted imaging (MRI-DWI) in the early detection of chemotherapy resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. <strong>MATERIAL AND METHODS</strong> MRI-DWI and computed tomography (CT) were carried out in 75 patients with newly diagnostic NSCLC before and after first, second, fourth, and sixth cycles of chemotherapy. Resistance to chemotherapy was assessed based on the change in the largest tumor diameter after chemotherapy. Diffusion of water molecule in each lesion was quantitatively measured by apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC). The diagnostic results of DWI after first and second cycle of chemotherapy were analyzed by the area under receiver operating characteristics curve (ROC). <strong>RESULTS</strong> Among the patients, 43 patients were chemo-resistance while 32 patients were chemo-sensitive. The ADC changing rate between second and first cycle of chemotherapy was significantly higher in chemo-sensitive patients compared with chemo-resistance patients (t=3.236,
