Magnetic Resonance Elastography of the Liver: A Single-Institution Review of Cases Performed in a 5-Year Interval.
Article in Journal of computer assisted tomography. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveThis study aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) in detecting hepatic fibrosis and determining clinically relevant stiffness cutoff values per stage of fibrosis.
methodsThis retrospective study assessed 1488 hepatic MRE evaluations performed at a single institution for 5 years. Mean liver stiffness measurements were collected from 282 patients who had an MRE study within 1 year of histopathologic analysis. Areas under receiver operating characteristic curves were calculated for each stage of fibrosis with nonparametric ordinal measures of accuracy, and Youden Index was determined.
resultsMean liver stiffness measurement values were as follows: F0, 2.5± 0.55 kPa; F1, 3.1± 0.80 kPa; F2, 3.4±0.95 kPa; F3, 4.7±1.44 kPa; and F4, 7.9± 2.64 kPa. Nonparametric ordinal measures of accuracy per fibrosis stage were as follows: F0: 0.934, P < 0.001; F0-F1: 0.917, P < 0.001; F0-F2: 0.944, P < 0.001; and F0-F3: 0.941, P < 0.001. Youden Index values for fibrosis stages F2, F3, and F4 were 3.9, 4.0, and 4.5 kPa, respectively.
conclusionsMagnetic resonance elastography is an accurate diagnostic tool in assessing liver fibrosis.
