Quantitative evaluation of fibrosis in idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor by IVIM-DWI.
Article in Frontiers in ophthalmology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: To quantitatively evaluate the degree of fibrosis in Idiopathic Orbital Inflammatory Pseudotumor (IOIP) using Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (IVIM-DWI). Methods: Twenty eight patients (32 eyes) with idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor were pathologically diagnosed in the Affiliated Hospital of Yunnan University from August 2019 to August 2024. Routine orbital MRI plain scan and ivim-dwi scan were completed before surgery, and the true diffusion coefficient (d), pseudo diffusion coefficient (d*) and perfusion fraction (f) were obtained. According to the proportion of chronic inflammatory cells and fibrous tissue components in postoperative histopathological sections, it was defined that fibrous cells accounted for less than 10% of the total number of cells as negative (-), and > 10% as positive (+), of which 10%%25% were +, 25%%50% were + +, 50%%75% were + + +, and > 75% were + + +. Taking the proportion of fibrocytes in histopathological sections as the standard of fibrosis degree, the correlation between ivim-dwi parameters and the proportion of fibrocytes in pathological sections was analyzed. Data were analyzed by SPSS 19.0 statistical software package, and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Among 28 cases (32 eyes) with idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor, there was no statistical difference between gender, age and the degree of IOIP fibrosis (P > 0.05). There was a statistically significant difference between the proportion of IOIP fiber composition and the D value and F value in IVIM-DWI parameters (P < 0.05), and the sensitivity of F value was higher than D value in the comparison of the two parameters combined with ROC curve analysis; There was no statistical difference between the D * value and the degree of fibrosis (P > 0.05). Conclusion: The D value and F value of IVIM-DWI showed a correlation with the proportion of IOIP fiber components, and the sensitivity of F value was higher than D value. Ivim-dwi examination parameters can be used as quantitative and objective indicators to evaluate the degree of fibrosis of lesions before IOIP.
