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

The accuracy of non-contrast MRI in diagnosing acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremities is different. To explore the application of high-resolution non-contrast 3D CUBE T1-weighted MRI in the lower extremities DVT. We recruited 26 patients suspected DVT of the lower extremities from Hebei General Hospital in China. All patients underwent high-resolution non-contrast 3D CUBE T1-weighted MRI. We evaluated the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of diagnosing thrombosis. And we divided thrombi into two parts: filling thrombus (FT) and non-filling thrombus (NFT), compared the agreement between MRI and Ultrasound (US) and analysed the locations of thrombi. Compared with US, MRI yielded a sensitivity of 79%, a specificity of 94.2% in mean value, a sensitivity of 85.7%, 97.4%, and 51.7% in iliac, femoral-popliteal, and calf segments respectively, a specificity of 97.6%, 88.3%, and 98.2% in iliac, femoral-popliteal, and in calf segments respectively. The accuracy of MRI in the diagnosis of lower extremity DVT was in very good agreement (κ = 0.711, 95% CI 0.627, 0.795). The FT was the most part in US and CUBE (68/56), CUBE can detect more NFT in femoral vein than US (22/4). 3D CUBE T1-weighted MRI can be used to accurately diagnose acute DVT and detect more NFT. It has the potential of follow-up at the end of treatment to establish a new baseline to stop anticoagulant drug.
