Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging Improves the Prognostic Outcomes in Patients With Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma After Curative-Intent Resection.

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
Purpose: The prognosis of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma remains unclear. Thus, this study aimed at investigating whether additional multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) would guide additional treatment and improve the prognostic outcomes of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma patients. Methods and Materials: This retrospective study included 256 patients undergoing dynamic enhanced computed tomography scan only (CT group) and 31 patients undergoing both mpMRI and computed tomography scans (CT+MR group). Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to minimize the potential selection bias and confounding effects. The overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were compared between the two groups. Results: More nodules (n = 6), additional biliary dilation (n = 4), and peritumoral parenchymal arterial phase hyperenhancement (n = 18) were found with the additional mpMRI scan, which led to treatment modification. Cox regression analysis revealed the survival advantage of additional mpMRI imaging based on the OS (HR 0.396, 95% CI 0.239-0.657, Conclusions: Additional mpMRI helps clinicians to select better treatment options, lower the risk of tumor recurrence, and improve the overall survival.
