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

Apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC) can provide phenotypic information of brain lesions, which can aid the diagnosis of brain alterations in neonates with congenital heart diseases (CHDs). However, the corresponding clinical significance of quantitative descriptors of brain tissue remains to be elucidated. By using ADC metrics and texture features, this study aimed to investigate the diagnostic value of single-slice and multi-slice measurements for assessing brain alterations in neonates with CHDs. ADC images were acquired from 60 neonates with echocardiographically confirmed non-cyanotic CHDs and 22 healthy controls (HCs) treated at Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from 2012 to 2016. ADC metrics and texture features for both single and multiple slices of the whole brain were extracted and analyzed to the gestational age. The diagnostic performance of ADC metrics for CHDs was evaluated by using analysis of covariance and receiver operating characteristic. For both the CHD and HC groups, ADC metrics were inversely correlated with the gestational age in single and multi-slice measurements (
