The Role of Amide Proton Transfer (APT)-Weighted Imaging in Glioma: Assessment of Tumor Grading, Molecular Profile and Survival in Different Tumor Components.
Article in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Amide Proton Transfer-weighted (APTw) imaging is a molecular MRI technique used to quantify protein concentrations in gliomas, which have heterogeneous components with varying cellularity and metabolic activity. This study aimed to assess the correlation between the component-specific APT signal of the neoplasm and WHO grade, molecular profile and survival status. Sixty-one patients with adult-type diffuse gliomas were retrospectively analyzed. APT values were semi-automatically extracted from tumor solid and, whenever present, necrotic components. APT values were compared between groups stratified by WHO grade, IDH-mutation, MGMT promoter methylation and 1- and 2-year survival status using Wilcoxon rank-sum test, adjusting for multiple comparisons. Overall survival (OS) was analyzed in the subgroup of 48 patients with grade 4 tumors using Cox proportional-hazards models. Random-effects models were used to assess inter-subject heterogeneity of the mean APT values in each tumor component. APT values of the solid component significantly differed between patients with grades 2-3 and 4 tumors (mean 1.58 ± 0.50 vs. 2.04 ± 0.56,
