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
purposeThis study is to compare the accuracy of 2D BLADE turbo gradient- and spin-echo imaging (TGSE BLADE) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with that of readout-segmented echo-planar (RESOLVE) DWI in the detection of primary and residual/recurrent temporal bone cholesteatoma.
methodsThe prospective study population consisted of 58 patients who were underwent magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for the evaluation of suspected temporal bone cholesteatoma. Two radiologists independently evaluated the two sequences. Kappa (k) statistics, the intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC), and a paired t test were used for statistical analysis.
resultsOf the 58 patients included, all had histo-pathologically confirmed cholesteatomas. In ≤ 3 mm group (n = 13), TGSE BLADE sequence correctly identified all cases except one that was recorded as equivocal on both sequences because of high signal intensity on T1WI; while on RESOLVE sequences, 6 were positive, 4 were equivocal, and 3 were false negative. For > 3 mm group (n = 45), detection performance was similar between the two sequences. The mean ADC of cholesteatoma on TGSE BLADE DWI was 0.923 × 10
conclusionTGSE BLADE outperforms RESOLVE in the detection of small temporal bone cholesteatoma ≤ 3 mm.
