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/Aim: Lipomatous tumors, including lipomas, atypical lipomatous tumors (ALTs), myxoid liposarcomas (MLs), and dedifferentiated liposarcomas (DLs), are often diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Differential diagnosis of lipomas and ALTs by MRI is often challenging. Patients and Methods: Patients who underwent Results: This study included 44 patients with lipomas (n=19), ALTs (n=12), MLs (n=9), and DLs (n=4). The mean SUV Conclusion: Lipomas or ALTs had a significantly lower SUV
