Predicting disease-free survival in locally advanced rectal cancer using a prognostic model based on pretreatment b-value threshold map and postoperative pathologic features.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeDisease-free survival (DFS) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) is an important factor in affecting the quality of life and determining the subsequent treatment procedures for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). This study aimed to develop a novel prognostic model for predicting the DFS in patients with LARC following nCRT and to verify its effectiveness. MATERIALS AND
methodsPatients with LARC who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and nCRT at our institution between November 2017 and March 2022 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Clinicopathologic data and MRI indicators of all patients were collected and evaluated. All patients were divided into DFS and non-DFS groups according to the presence or absence of local recurrence or distant metastasis. The differences in the b-value threshold (b
