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

purposeThis study aims to compare the accuracy of the ADNEX MR scoring system and pattern recognition system to evaluate adnexal lesions indeterminate on the US exam.

methodsIn this cross-sectional retrospective study, pelvic DCE-MRI of 245 patients with 340 adnexal masses was studied based on the ADNEX MR scoring system and pattern recognition system.

resultsADNEX MR scoring system with a sensitivity of 96.6% and specificity of 91% has an accuracy of 92.9%. The pattern recognition system's sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy are 95.8%, 93.3%, and 94.7%, respectively. PPV and NPV for the ADNEX MR scoring system were 85.1 and 98.1, respectively. PPV and NPV for the pattern recognition system were 89.7% and 97.7%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve for the ADNEX MR scoring system and pattern recognition system is 0.938 (95% CI, 0.909-0.967) and 0.950 (95% CI, 0.922-0.977). Pairwise comparison of these AUCs showed no significant difference (p = 0.052).

conclusionThe pattern recognition system is less sensitive than the ADNEX MR scoring system, yet more specific.
