1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveSolitary and solid pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can present overlapping imaging features, causing diagnostic dilemmas. Hence, this study aimed to identify positron emission tomography (PET) morphological features derived from fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (

methodsClinical records and

resultsPTB presented with more heterogeneous glucometabolism than NSCLC in PET imaging (50% vs 17%, P < 0.05), especially in lesions with a maximum diameter < 30 mm (39% vs. 5%, P < 0.05). NSCLC usually showed centric hypometabolism, whereas PTB more frequently presented with an eccentric metabolic pattern, mainly including piebald, half-side, lesser curvature, and greater curvature shapes. Multivariate logistic regression identified that glucometabolic heterogeneity, eccentric hypometabolism, smaller lesion size, calcification, satellite lesions, and higher CT value of the hypometabolic area were independently diagnostic factors for PTB.
