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

aimDiffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI-MRI) is used to predict tumor malignancy. Here we explored the role of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in the treatment of patients with resectable colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM).

methodsMagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans were conducted using a Signa HDe or Signa Explorer 1.5-T scanner (GE Healthcare). ADC maps were calculated using DWI with

resultsThe disease-free survival rate of the ADC-low group was significantly lower than that of the ADC-high group (

conclusionLow ADC values were an independent prognostic factor of resectable CRLM and correlated with HIF-1α expression.
