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

Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are commonly used to assess femoral and tibial torsion. While CT offers high spatial resolution, it involves ionizing radiation. MRI avoids radiation but requires multiple sequences and extended acquisition time. We retrospectively evaluated whether a three-dimensional isotropic MRI localizer (FastView) could serve as a reliable and faster alternative. In this retrospective single-center study, 60 lower limbs from 30 patients, aged 27.1 ± 11.5 years (mean ± standard deviation), 19 females and 11 males, were assessed using both FastView and a dedicated MRI protocol. FastView (5 × 5 × 5 mm
