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

backgroundPET/MRI has a high potential in oncology imaging, especially for tumor indications where high soft tissue contrast is crucial such as genitourinary tumors. One of the challenges for PET/MRI acquisition is handling of metal implants. In addition to conventional methods, more innovative techniques have been developed to reduce artifacts caused by those implants such as the selective multiacquisition variable-image combination (MAVRIC-SL). The aim of this study is to perform a quantitative and qualitative assessment of metal artifact reduction in

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed data of 20 men with 37 metal hip implants diagnosed with PCA, staged or restaged by

resultsThe smallest averaged signal void was observed on MAVRIC-SL sequences with a mean artifact size of 26.17 cm

conclusionsMAVRIC-SL sequence allows better image quality in the surrounding of hip implants by reducing MR signal voids and increasing so the accuracy of anatomical assignment of pathological
