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 and purposeCurrent imaging techniques have difficulty differentiating treatment success and failure in spinal metastases undergoing radiation therapy. This study investigated the correlation between changes in dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging perfusion parameters and clinical outcomes following radiation therapy for spinal metastases. We hypothesized that perfusion parameters will outperform traditional size measurements in discriminating treatment success and failure. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective study included 49 patients (mean age, 63 [SD, 13] years; 29 men) with metastatic lesions treated with radiation therapy who underwent dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging. The median time between radiation therapy and follow-up dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging was 62 days. We divided patients into 2 groups: clinical success (

resultsThe reduction in plasma volume was greater in the success group than in the failure group (-57.3% versus +88.2%, respectively;

conclusionsThe specificity of plasma volume was higher than that of conventional size measurements, suggesting that dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging is a powerful tool to discriminate between treatment success and failure.
