Exploring the Diagnostic Performance of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Ultrasound-Guided High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Ablation for Abdominal Wall Endometriosis.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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 explore the clinical value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (USg-HIFU) for the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE).
methodsMagnetic resonance imaging was performed before and after USg-HIFU. Information on clinical characteristics of patients, MRI characteristics of lesions, and treatment outcomes were collected. Thirty AWE lesions in 29 patients were examined before HIFU treatment, while 27 patients were examined after treatment. The results of MRI and color doppler ultrasound before surgery, as well as the volume and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of the lesions before and after USg-HIFU treatment were compared. We also observed the clinical symptoms remission, recurrence, and ablation rates of the lesions in follow-up after HIFU treatment.
resultsThe locations of the 30 AWE lesions were identified by MRI before USg-HIFU treatment. Their sizes appeared larger on MRI than ultrasound (
conclusionMRI is a useful tool for identifying the location, size, and concurrent changes of AWE before and after USg-HIFU treatment, which is beneficial for follow-up monitoring and defining treatment efficacy.
