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.

resultsSplenic lesion uptake (p = 0.001) was the only visual parameter significantly distinguishing between benign and malignant lesions. ROC curve analysis demonstrated that SUVmax had the largest area under the ROC, 0.91 (p < 0.001), with an optimal cut-off > 5.3 having a sensitivity of 90.3% and a specificity of 80.6%. Subgroup analysis of malignant lesions showed that SUVmax (p = 0.013), LBR (p = 0.012), and TLG (p = 0.034) were significantly higher in splenic lymphomas than in splenic metastases.
conclusionOf the [ CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT: SUVmax and visual grade of [ KEY POINTS: Many splenic lesions are difficult to diagnose on anatomical imaging, with histopathologic analyses are required. SUVmax of PET/CT provided the diagnostic ability to differentiate between benign and malignant splenic lesions. More than normal spleen uptake can be a convenient parameter to diagnose malignant spleen lesions.
