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

Background: Cervical cancer affects women's health worldwide. Accurate diagnosis based on the International Federation of Obstetrics and Gynecology (FIGO) is crucial for selecting treatment strategies for cervical cancer. Compared to conventional diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with a b-value of 800 s/mm Methods: A total of 55 patients with cervical cancer and 33 volunteers prospectively underwent FOCUS-MUSE DWI and FOCUS DWI with a 5b-protocol: b =0, 100, 400, 800, 1,200 s/mm Results: The sFOCUS-MUSE DWI Conclusions: FOCUS-MUSE DWI provides better image quality for evaluating cervical cancer and well diagnostic performance than FOCUS DWI. Synthetic high-b-value FOCUS-MUSE DWI takes no additional scan time and offers syADC values with reliable discrimination ability of cervical cancer with different FIGO stages.
