Dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging of uterine endometrial carcinoma with/without squamous differentiation.

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
purposeEndometrial carcinoma with strong enhancement on dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is suggestive of high-grade type II endometrial carcinoma. However, low-grade type I endometrial carcinoma may also sometimes show strong enhancement. We hypothesized that squamous differentiation would contribute to the strong enhancement at the early phase on DCE-MRI-like uterine cervical squamous cell carcinoma and compared the DCE-MRI findings of endometrial carcinoma with and without squamous differentiation.
methodsDCE-MRI of endometrial carcinoma including 41 low-grade type I endometrial carcinomas without squamous differentiation (LG), 39 low-grade type I endometrial carcinomas with squamous differentiation (LGSD), and 20 high-grade type II endometrial carcinomas (HG) was retrospectively evaluated.
resultsSignificant difference in the time-intensity curves was found between LG and HG and LG and LGSD, whereas no significant difference was seen between HG and LGSD. Curve type 3 (initial signal rise which is steeper than that of the myometrium) was more frequent in HG (60%) and LGSD (77%) than in LG (34%).
conclusionIt should be recognized as a pitfall that high-grade type II endometrial carcinoma and low-grade type I endometrial carcinoma with squamous differentiation may show similar early strong enhancement on DCE-MRI.
