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

High-quality magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is essential for the precise assessment of the knee joint and plays a key role in the diagnostics, treatment and prognosis. Intact cartilage tissue is characterized by a smooth surface, uniform tissue thickness and an organized zonal structure, which are manifested as depth-dependent signal intensity variations. Cartilage pathologies are identifiable through alterations in signal intensity and morphology and should be communicated based on a precise terminology. Cartilage pathologies can show hyperintense and hypointense signal alterations. Cartilage defects are assessed based on their depth and should be described in terms of their location and extent. The following symptom constellations are of overarching clinical relevance in image reading and interpretation: symptom constellations associated with rapidly progressive forms of joint degeneration and unfavorable prognosis, accompanying symptom constellations mostly in connection with destabilizing meniscal lesions and subchondral insufficiency fractures (accelerated osteoarthritis) as well as symptoms beyond the "typical" degeneration, especially when a discrepancy is observed between (minor) structural changes and (major) synovitis and effusion (inflammatory arthropathy).
