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
To prospectively investigate the prognostic value of 18F-FDG PET/MRI in patients with oropharyngeal or hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OHSCC) treated by chemoradiotherapy. The study cohort consisted of patients with OHSCC who had undergone integrated PET/MRI prior to chemoradiotherapy or radiotherapy. Imaging parameters derived from intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM), dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI), and 18F-FDG PET were analyzed in relation to overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). In multivariable analysis, T classification (p < 0.001), metabolic tumor volume (p = 0.013), and pseudo-diffusion coefficient (p = 0.008) were identified as independent risk factors for OS. The volume transfer rate constant (p = 0.015), initial area under the curve (p = 0.043), T classification (p = 0.018), and N classification (p = 0.018) were significant predictors for RFS. The Harrell’s c-indices of OS and RFS obtained from prognostic models incorporating clinical and PET/MRI predictors were significantly higher than those derived from the traditional TNM staging system (p = 0.001). The combination of clinical risk factors with functional parameters derived from IVIM and DCE-MRI plus metabolic PET parameters derived from 18F-FDG PET in integrated PET/MRI outperformed the information provided by traditional TNM staging in predicting the survival of patients with OHSCC.
