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

Portal vein thrombosis is one of the most serious complications after liver transplantation. It is important to determine the age of the thrombus for management of portal vein thrombosis. We present a case report of histologically confirmed heterogenous fresh portal vein thrombus which was depicted heterogenous high signal intensity on magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging. The sequence may be a useful imaging tool for detecting fresh thrombus components in the portal vein thrombosis.
