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

Objective: To investigate an Methods: 32 STS patients were enrolled prospectively and underwent 3.0T MRI, Diffusion weighted imaging(DWI) and Hydrogen proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( Result: The pathological diagnosis accuracy of the biopsy specimens was 100%, the subtype diagnosis accuracy was 87.5%, while the grading diagnosis accuracy was 93.8% compared with that of the surgical specimens. The FNCLCC high-grade group and Ki67 high-expression group had lower Apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC) values and higher Cholin/Creatin (Cho/Cr) ratios. The area under the curve(AUC) of ADCmin, ADCmean values and Cho/Cr ratios to discriminate between low- and high-grade groups were 0.956,0.969,0.917, low and high expression groups were 0.929,0.957,0.943; The ADC values of STSs correlated negatively while the Cho/Cr ratios correlated positively with FNCLCC grading (r=-0.782,-0.814, 0.758,p<0.001) and Ki-67 LI (r=-0.853, -0.902,0.710,p<0.001). Conclusion: The CT-MRI fusion image registration method may improve the accuracy of pre treatment STS CNBs pathology diagnoses and can be used for precise imaging-pathology control studies. ADC values and Cho/Cr ratios may therefore serve as a valuable supplement to STS histopathological grading and correlate with Ki67 expression.
