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
backgroundAn increasing number of studies to date have found preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features valuable in predicting the prognosis of rectal cancer (RC). However, research is still lacking on the correlation between preoperative MRI features and the risk of recurrence after radical resection of RC, urgently necessitating further in-depth exploration.
aimTo investigate the correlation between preoperative MRI parameters and the risk of recurrence after radical resection of RC to provide an effective tool for predicting postoperative recurrence.
methodsThe data of 90 patients who were diagnosed with RC by surgical pathology and underwent radical surgical resection at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University between May 2020 and December 2023 were collected through retrospective analysis. General demographic data, MRI data, and tumor markers levels were collected. According to the reviewed data of patients six months after surgery, the clinicians comprehensively assessed the recurrence risk and divided the patients into high recurrence risk (37 cases) and low recurrence risk (53 cases) groups. Independent sample
resultsThe detection of positive extramural vascular invasion through preoperative MRI [odds ratio (OR) = 4.29,
conclusionThe results of this study indicate that preoperative MRI detection is of great importance for predicting the risk of postoperative recurrence in patients with RC. Monitoring these markers helps clinicians identify patients at high risk, allowing for more aggressive treatment and monitoring strategies to improve patient outcomes.
