The combination of T2-mapping value of lacrimal gland and clinical indicators can improve the stage prediction of Graves' ophthalmopathy compared to clinical activity scores.
Article in Endocrine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
purposeTo explore radiological changes of the lacrimal gland (LG) in Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO) and whether a combination of MRI parameters and clinical indicators would be more effective in predicting individual clinical manifestation of GO compared to clinical activity scores (CAS) assessment.
methodsA total of 28 patients with GO (56 eyes) and 14 healthy controls (HCs) (28 eyes) were enrolled between July 2020 and July 2021. Patients were classified into the active GO group (CAS ≥ 3) and the inactive GO group (CAS < 3). MRI data and clinical data of LG were collected. The diagnostic performance of MRI parameters and models was assessed by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Logistic regression predictive models for staging GO were compared.
resultsLG in GO groups had significantly higher K
conclusionThere were significant differences in MRI quantitative parameters of LG between HCs and GO patients. The combination of the T2-mapping value of LG and clinical indicators improved the stage prediction of Graves' ophthalmopathy compared to CAS, thus providing a new idea for enhancing the objectification level of GO data collection.
