The value of whole-volume apparent diffusion coefficient histogram analysis in preoperatively distinguishing intracranial solitary fibrous tumor and transitional meningioma.

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
Purpose: To investigate the value of whole-volume apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) histogram analysis in preoperatively distinguishing intracranial solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) from transitional meningiomas (TM), thereby assisting the establishment of the treatment protocol. Methods: Preoperative diffusion-weighted imaging datasets of 24 patients with SFT and 28 patients with TM were used to extract whole-volume ADC histogram parameters, including variance, skewness, kurtosis, and mean, as well as 1st (AP1), 10th (AP10), 50th (AP50), 90th (AP90), and 99th (AP99) percentiles of ADC using MaZda software. The independent Results: SFT exhibited significantly higher variance, and lower AP1 and AP10 (all Conclusion: Whole-volume ADC histogram analysis is a feasible tool for non-invasive preoperative discrimination between intracranial SFT and TM, with variance being the most promising prospective parameter.
