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

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI), neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI), and mean apparent propagator-magnetic resonance imaging (MAP-MRI) in detecting CST injury caused by GBM and to compare their performances. Materials and methods: We enrolled 76 patients diagnosed with GBM with motor weakness (MW, Results: Significant alterations in most diffusion parameters of DTI, DKI, NODDI, and MAP-MRI were observed in the affected CST group compared to the healthy CST group ( Conclusion: Diffusion parameters from DTI, DKI, NODDI, and MAP-MRI are useful for evaluating CST injury. While DKI-derived MK and NODDI-derived ICVF achieved identical high AUC values, MK exhibited a more balanced sensitivity-specificity profile for assessing microstructural alterations in CST injury, this advantage of DKI may better address clinical demands, potentially aiding in surgical planning and preserving motor function in patients with GBM.
