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
Rationale and objectives: The management of tumor recurrence (TR) and radiation-induced brain injury (RIBI) poses significant challenges, necessitating the development of effective differentiation strategies. In this study, we investigated the potential of amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) and arterial spin labeling (ASL) imaging for discriminating between TR and RIBI in patients with high-grade glioma (HGG). Methods: A total of 64 HGG patients receiving standard treatment were enrolled in this study. The patients were categorized based on secondary pathology or MRI follow-up results, and the demographic characteristics of each group were presented. The APTw, rAPTw, cerebral blood flow (CBF) and rCBF values were quantified. The differences in various parameters between TR and RIBI were assessed using the independent-samples Results: The APTw and CBF values of TR were significantly higher compared to RIBI (P < 0.05). APTw MRI demonstrated superior diagnostic efficiency in distinguishing TR from RIBI (area under the curve [AUC]: 0.864; sensitivity: 75.0 %; specificity: 81.8 %) when compared to ASL imaging. The combined utilization of APTw and CBF value further enhanced the AUC to 0.922. The Delong test demonstrated that the combination of APTw and ASL exhibited superior performance in the identification of TR and RIBI, compared to ASL alone ( Conclusion: APTw exhibited superior diagnostic efficacy compared to ASL in the evaluation of TR and RIBI. Furthermore, the combination of APTw and ASL exhibits greater discriminatory capability and diagnostic performance.
