Intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging for early assessment of combined anti-angiogenic/chemotherapy for colorectal cancer liver metastases.

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: To explore the value of intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging (IVIM-DWI) in the early assessment of colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM). Methods: A total of 34 patients with pathologically confirmed unresectable CRLM were enrolled. All participants uniformly received capecitabine and oxaliplatin (CAPOX) plus bevacizumab chemotherapy as standard first-line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). Participants underwent 1.5-T conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and IVIM-DWI sequence scans with 9 b values (0 to 1,000 s/mm Results: According to the RECIST v. 1.1 criteria, the 34 participants were divided into a response group (n=16) and a non-response group (n=18). In the response group, the f value was significantly lowered (P=0.001) and the D value was significantly increased after treatment (P=0.002). In the non-response group, the D value was increased slightly after treatment (P=0.039), and there was no significant difference in the f value and the D* value. In addition, the f value at baseline was significantly greater in the response group than in the non-response group (0.221±0.033 Conclusions: The IVIM-DWI parameters (f values and D values) provided effective assessment of the therapeutic effect of CAPOX combined with bevacizumab in patients with CRLM at an early stage, and the f value of the pre-treatment tumor area was shown to be useful for predicting the treatment response of patients.
