The Feasibility of Using Tri-Exponential Intra-Voxel Incoherent Motion DWI for Identifying the Microvascular Invasion in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Article in Journal of hepatocellular carcinoma, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 papers.
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 assess the effectiveness of tri-exponential Intra-Voxel Incoherent Motion (tri-IVIM) MRI in preoperatively identifying microvascular invasion (MVI) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Patients and Methods: In this prospective study, 67 patients with HCC were included. Metrics from bi-exponential IVIM (bi-IVIM) and tri-IVIM were calculated. Subgroup comparisons were analyzed using the independent Student's Results: MVI-positive HCCs exhibited significantly lower true diffusion coefficient (D Conclusion: Tri-IVIM can provide information on perfusion and diffusion for evaluating MVI in HCC. Additionally, tri-IVIM outperformed bi-IVIM in identifying MVI-positive HCC. By integrating clinical risk factors and metrics from tri-IVIM, a predictive nomogram exhibited the highest diagnostic accuracy, potentially aiding in the noninvasive and preoperative assessment of MVI.
