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

purposeTo identify qualitative MRI features of non-(contrast)-enhancing tumor (nCET) in glioblastoma's T2-FLAIR hyperintense lesion.

methodsThirty-three histologically confirmed glioblastoma patients whose T1-, T2- and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MRI and

resultsThree imaging features were found helpful for identifying nCET; "Bulky gray matter involvement", "Around the rim of contrast-enhancement (Around-rim)," and "High-intensity on T1WI and low-intensity on T2WI (HighT1LowT2)" resulting in an nCET score = 2 × Bulky gray matter involvement - 2 × Around-rim + HighT1LowT2 + 2. The nCET score's classification performances of two independent observers measured by AUC were 0.78 and 0.80, with sensitivities and specificities using a threshold of four being 0.443 and 0.771, and 0.916 and 0.768, respectively. The weighted kappa coefficient for the nCET score was 0.946.

conclusionThe current investigation demonstrated that qualitative assessments of glioblastoma's MRI might help identify nCET in T2/FLAIR high-intensity lesions. The novel nCET score is expected to aid in expanding treatment targets within the T2/FLAIR high-intensity lesions.
