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.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify the utility of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with an apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map as a predictor of the response of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to cisplatin-based hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC). We retrospectively evaluated 113 consecutive patients with Barcelona Clinical Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage B or C HCC, who underwent gadoxetic acid-enhanced and diffusion-weighted MR imaging. The appropriate cutoff for the pretreatment tumor-to-liver ADC ratio was determined to be 0.741. Of the 113 patients, 50 (44%) presented with a pretreatment tumor-to-liver ADC ratio < 0.741 (low group). Evaluation of the treatment response after 2-3 cycles of HAIC in these 50 patients revealed that 21 patients (42%) experienced an objective response to HAIC. On the other hand, only 11 of the 63 patients (17%) with a pretreatment tumor-to-liver ADC ratio ≥ 0.741 (high group) showed an objective response. Thus, the objective response rate was significantly higher in the low group than in the high group (
