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

backgroundDue to frequent and high-risk sports activities, the elbow joint is susceptible to injury, especially to cartilage tissue, which can cause pain, limited movement and even loss of joint function.

aimTo evaluate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) multisequence imaging for improving the diagnostic accuracy of adult elbow cartilage injury.

methodsA total of 60 patients diagnosed with elbow cartilage injury in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were enrolled in this retrospective study. We analyzed the accuracy of conventional MRI sequences (T1-weighted imaging, T2-weighted imaging, proton density weighted imaging, and T2 star weighted image) and Three-Dimensional Coronary Imaging by Spiral Scanning (3D-CISS) in the diagnosis of elbow cartilage injury. Arthroscopy was used as the gold standard to evaluate the diagnostic effect of single and combination sequences in different injury degrees and the consistency with arthroscopy.

resultsThe diagnostic accuracy of 3D-CISS sequence was 89.34% ± 4.98%, the sensitivity was 90%, and the specificity was 88.33%, which showed the best performance among all sequences (

conclusionCombination of 3D-CISS and each sequence had significant advantages in improving MRI diagnostic accuracy of elbow cartilage injuries in adults. Multisequence MRI is recommended to ensure the best diagnosis and treatment.
