Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging assessment of residual tumor angiogenesis after insufficient microwave ablation and donafenib adjuvant therapy.

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
To analyze the correlation between dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) permeability parameters and serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels in a rabbit VX2 liver cancer model with insufficient microwave ablation (MWA), to observe the dynamic changes in residual tumor angiogenesis in the short term after MWA, and to assess the effectiveness of donafenib as adjuvant therapy. Forty rabbits with VX2 liver tumors were randomly divided into three groups: an insufficient MWA group (n = 15), a combined treatment group (n = 15) and a control group (n = 10). The dynamic changes in VEGF expression after MWA and the effectiveness of donafenib as adjuvant therapy were evaluated by DCE-MRI and serum VEGF levels before surgery and 1, 3, 7, and 14 days after surgery. The correlation between the volume translate constant (Ktrans) of DCE-MRI parameters and serum VEGF levels fluctuated after ablation, but the coefficient was always positive (all p < 0.001). Repeated-measures ANOVA revealed significant changes in the serum VEGF concentration (F = 40.905, p < 0.001; partial η
