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

Background: To investigate the value of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to discriminate spinal metastasis from tuberculous spondylitis. Methods: This study included 50 patients with spinal metastasis (32 lung cancer, 7 breast cancer, 11 renal cancer), and 20 with tuberculous spondylitis. The IVIM parameters, including the single-index model (apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)-stand), double exponential model (ADC Results: The ADC Conclusions: IVIM MR imaging might be helpful to differentiate spinal metastasis from tuberculous spondylitis, and provide guidance for clinical treatment.
