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

objectivesThis study was conducted in order to explore the value of histogram analysis of the intravoxel incoherent motion-kurtosis (IVIM-kurtosis) model in the diagnosis and grading of prostate cancer (PCa), compared with monoexponential model (MEM). MATERIALS AND

methodsThirty patients were included in this study. Single-shot echo-planar imaging (SS-EPI) diffusion-weighted images (

resultsFor the IVIM-kurtosis model,

conclusionThe IVIM-kurtosis model has potential value in the differential diagnosis of PCa and BPH/prostatitis. IVIM-kurtosis histogram analysis may provide more information in the grading of PCa than MEM.
