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

objectiveTo evaluate 3D reconstruction through CT in the measurement of abdominal cavity volume.

methodsFrom January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019, 61 patients diagnosed as external abdominal hernia were included in this prospective study. Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) was applied to patients scanning, and the images were transferred to post-processing workstation for further analysis. We measured the abdominal cavity volumes using volume rendering (VR) method and diameter rendering (DR) method, and the results were used to test whether there is a correlation between them. In addition, the time required for the measurement was recorded and analyzed.

resultsIn this study, we found that there was no significant difference in the abdominal cavity volumes between these two groups (VR vs. DR = 7857.316 ± 2035.786 cm

conclusionIn conclusion, the DR method can quickly measure and calculate the abdominal cavity volume, and its accuracy can more suitable for clinical requirement.
