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

background and purposeThe Neck Imaging Reporting and Data System was introduced to assess the probability of recurrence in surveillance imaging after treatment of head and neck cancer. This study investigated inter- and intrareader agreement in interpreting contrast-enhanced CT after treatment of oral cavity and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective study analyzed CT datasets of 101 patients. Four radiologists provided the Neck Imaging Reporting and Data System reports for the primary site and neck (cervical lymph nodes). The Kendall's coefficient of concordance (W), Fleiss κ (κ

resultsOverall, interreader agreement was strong or moderate for both the primary site (W = 0.74, κ

conclusionsThe Neck Imaging Reporting and Data System used for surveillance contrast-enhanced CT after treatment of oral cavity and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma provides acceptable score reproducibility with limitations in patients with posttherapeutic changes but no cancer recurrence.
