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

backgroundMRI signal changes in the cerebellum are observed in multiple disorders including vascular diseases, neoplastic lesions, degenerative diseases, inflammatory disorders, metabolic diseases, infections, and trauma. In some diseases, cerebellar involvement is typical and sometimes isolated, while in other diseases cerebellar lesions are only observed occasionally in the presence of other typical extra-cerebellar abnormalities.

methodsIn this review, we will discuss the MRI characteristics of cerebellar lesions in adults observed in disorders with typical or frequent cerebellar involvement.

resultsInterpreting these cerebellar signal changes on MRI is essential to determine the underlying disorder. Assessing the lesion on MRI forms an essential part of diagnosis and follow-up, alongside patient's history, clinical state and other radiological and non-radiological examinations.

conclusionThe interpretation of cerebellar lesions on MRI depends on their exact localisation inside the cerebellum (e.g. uni- or bilateral lesions, involvement of the cerebellar peduncles, subcortical or cortical regions, or the deep cerebellar nuclei), signal changes on different MRI sequences, change of abnormalities over time, and the presence and characteristics of associated MRI lesions outside the cerebellum.
