Observational study in Contrast media & molecular imaging, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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: In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), the early diagnosis and efficient detection of recurrences and/or residual tumor after treatment play a very important role in patient's prognosis. Positron emission tomography (PET) using 2-deoxy-2- Methods: This retrospective observational cohort study consists of 104 patients from our center with histologically confirmed HNSCC. All patients received chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and underwent Results: PET/MRI was more sensitive (1.00 vs. 0.77) than PET/CT in the detection of locoregional recurrence. PET/MRI also had better negative (1.00 vs. 0.87) predictive values. AUCs for PET/MRI and PET/CT on patient-based analysis were 0.997 (95% CI 0.989-1.000) and 0.890 (95% CI 0.806-0.974), respectively. The comparison of sensitivity, AUCs, and negative predictive values revealed a statistically significant difference, Conclusion: Based on these results, PET/MRI might be considered the modality of choice in detecting locoregional recurrence in HNSCC patients, especially in the more advanced stages in the oral cavity, larynx, or nasopharynx.
