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

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is a radiation-free, high-spatial resolution technique which provides dynamic assessment of the heart and pericardial tissue. This is particularly useful for the evaluation and characterisation of non-cardiac tumours close to the pericardium for the exclusion of cardiovascular infiltration, and also for the assessment of the extent of myocardial invasion of cardiac metastases. This information can help make key decisions on further management in oncology multidisciplinary meetings. The CMR evaluation and main types of sequences acquired are detailed in this case series to illustrate the application of CMR in the assessment of non-cardiac malignancies and its importance in guiding management.
