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

To establish a nomogram model using MRI characteristics for differentiating Warthin's tumors (WT) from pleomorphic adenomas (PA) in parotid gland tumors, aiming to enhance management strategies. A retrospective observational study included patients with histopathologically confirmed WT or PA who underwent preoperative enhanced MRI from 2010 to 2023. Clinical and MRI data were analyzed to identify independent risk factors using multivariable logistic regression. A nomogram was constructed and internally validated using bootstrap resampling. 56 patients (32 WT, 24 PA) were analyzed. Significant differences in gender, age, degree of enhancement, and enhancement pattern were identified. The nomogram based on these factors demonstrated high predictive accuracy with an area under the ROC curve of 0.9909. The nomogram model presents a standardized quantitative method to differentiate WT from PA based on MRI characteristics, potentially improving diagnostic accuracy and patient management in parotid gland tumor diagnosis.
