Application of Field-of-View Optimized and Constrained Undistorted Single Shot (FOCUS) with Intravoxel Incoherent Motion (IVIM) in 3T in Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer.
Article in Disease markers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
purposeTo evaluate the efficacy of field-of-view (FOV) optimized and constrained undistorted single shot (FOCUS) with IVIM in 3T MRI in the grading of patients with locally advanced rectal cancer.
methodsFrom January 1st to December 31st, 2019, patients with locally advanced rectal cancer were retrieved. FOCUS DWI and FOCUS IVIM were obtained. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and IVIM parameters including mean true diffusion coefficient (
resultsEighty-eight patients (aged 31 to 77 years old, mean = 56) were included for analysis.
conclusionFOCUS IVIM-derived parameters and normalized parameters are useful for predicting the histologic grade in rectal cancer patients.
