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: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been increasingly used to study breast cancer for screening high-risk cases, pre-operative staging, and problem-solving because of its high sensitivity. However, its cost-effectiveness is still debated. Thus, the concept of abbreviated MRI (ABB-MRI) protocols was proposed as a possible solution for reducing MRI costs. PURPOSE: : to investigate the role of the abbreviated MRI protocols in detecting and staging breast cancer.

methods: a systematic search of the literature was carried out in the bibliographic databases: Scopus, PubMed, Medline, and Science Direct.

results: forty-one articles were included, which described results of the assessment of fifty-three abbreviated protocols for screening, staging, recurrence assessing, and problem-solving or clarification.

conclusions: the use of ABB-MRI protocols allows reducing the acquisition and reading times, maintaining a high concordance with the final interpretation, in comparison to a complete protocol. However, larger prospective and multicentre trials are necessary to validate the performance in specific clinical environments.
