Simplified liver imaging reporting and data system for the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma on gadoxetic acid-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging.

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
backgroundThe liver imaging reporting and data system (LI-RADS) diagnostic table has 15 cells and is too complex. The diagnostic performance of LI-RADS for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is not satisfactory on gadoxetic acid-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (EOB-MRI).
aimTo evaluate the ability of the simplified LI-RADS (sLI-RADS) to diagnose HCC on EOB-MRI.
methodsA total of 331 patients with 356 hepatic observations were retrospectively analysed. The diagnostic performance of sLI-RADS A-D using a single threshold was evaluated and compared with LI-RADS v2018 to determine the optimal sLI-RADS. The algorithms of sLI-RADS A-D are as follows: The single threshold for sLI-RADS A and B was 10 mm, that is, classified observations ≥ 10mm using an algorithm of 10-19 mm observations (sLI-RADS A) and ≥ 20 mm observations (sLI-RADS B) in the diagnosis table of LI-RADS v2018, respectively, while the classification algorithm remained unchanged for observations < 10 mm; the single threshold for sLI-RADS C and D was 20 mm, that is, for < 20 mm observations, the algorithms for < 10 mm observations (sLI-RADS C)and 10-19 mm observations (sLI-RADS D) were used, respectively, while the algorithm remained unchanged for observations ≥ 20 mm. With hepatobiliary phase (HBP) hypointensity as a major feature (MF), the final sLI-RADS (F-sLI-RADS) was formed according to the optimal sLI-RADS, and its diagnostic performance was evaluated. The times needed to classify the observations according to F-sLI-RADS and LI-RADS v2018 were compared.
resultsThe optimal sLI-RADS was sLI-RADS D (with a single threshold of 20 mm), because its sensitivity was greater than that of LI-RADS v2018 (89.8%
conclusionThe use of sLI-RADS with HBP hypointensity as an MF may improve the sensitivity of HCC diagnosis and reduce lesion classification time.
