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

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the patients with TSGCT who were diagnosed pathologically either by biopsy or surgical specimen. Furthermore, we evaluated the difference of the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) between diffused TSGCT with extra-articular invasion and TSGCT with intra-articular localization in the knee.

resultsThe study consisted of 20 patients with TSGCT. The mean SUVmax of TSGCT was 12.0 ± 6.50. There were five patients with TSGCT arising in the knee with extra-articular invasion and six with TSGCT with intra-articular localization. The mean SUVmax of TSGCT with extra-articular invasion and those with intra-articular localization were 14.3 ± 6.00 and 5.94 ± 3.89, respectively. TSGCT with extra-articular invasion had significantly higher SUVmax than TSGCT with intra-articular localization (p < 0.05).

conclusionsTSGCT revealed high FDG uptake. Furthermore, SUVmax was higher in diffused TSGCT with extra-articular invasion than in intra-articular localized TSGCT; this may reflect its local aggressiveness.
