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

The aim of this study was to use the magnetic resonance imaging maximum-intensity projection (MRI-MIP) method for diagnostic imaging of thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) and to investigate the stricture ratios of the subclavian artery (SCA), subclavian vein (SCV), and brachial plexus bundle (BP). A total of 113 patients with clinically suspected TOS were evaluated. MRI was performed in a position similar to the Wright test. The stricture was classified into four grades. Then, the stricture ratios of the SCA, SCV, and BP in the sagittal view were calculated by dividing the minimum diameter by the maximum diameter of each structure. Patients were divided into two groups: surgical (
