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

objectiveTo explore the feasibility of diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) in differentiating different types of renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

methods36 patients with clear cell RCC (CCRCC, low-grade,

resultsThe mean SNRs of DKI images at

conclusionOur preliminary study demonstrated significant differences in the DKI parameters between the subtypes of RCCs, given an adequate SNR of DKI images. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: 1.The MD value is the best parameter to distinguish CCRCC from other RCCs.2.The MK, KA and RK values are the best parameters to distinguish papillary RCC from other RCCs.3.DKI is able to provide images with sufficient SNRs in kidney disease.
