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
background and purposeDue to surgical advancements, the accurate detection of perineural disease spread has become increasingly important in the management and prognostication of head and neck cancers, though MR evaluation has thus far been limited by technical and logistic challenges. The purpose of this study was to specifically evaluate the relative capability of 3D CISS and 3D T2-SPACE imaging to delineate the proximal intracranial divisions of the normal trigeminal nerve, an area important in determining the resectability of intracranial perineural disease. MATERIALS AND
methodsA single center HIPAA-compliant, IRB approved retrospective review of 40 patients with clinical temporal bone/internal auditory canal MR imaging was conducted. 20 patients with 3D CISS images and 20 patients with 3D T2-SPACE images met inclusion criteria. Two radiologists scored the sequences on a 3-point scale based on ability to visualize anatomic structures surrounding the trigeminal nerve in Meckel's cave, intracranial trigeminal divisions, skull base neuroforamina, and proximal extracranial mandibular division.
resultsThe following anatomic locations scored significantly better in the T2-SPACE sequence compared to the CISS sequence for both raters: intracranial V3 (
conclusion3D T2-SPACE was found to be superior to 3D CISS in the evaluation of the distal intracranial and extracranial portions of the normal trigeminal nerve.
