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

Accurate early diagnosis and assessment of liver fibrosis are important for patient treatment and prognosis. This study explored the value of Gd- BOPTA-enhanced T1 mapping via the B1 inhomogeneity-corrected Variable Flip Angle (VFA) method for staging liver fibrosis in rats.

methodsSprague‒Dawley rats were divided into one control group (n = 6) and four carbon tetrachloride-induced liver fibrosis groups (n = 6 each group). T1 mapping via B1 inhomogeneity-corrected VFA was performed before and 90 minutes after Gd-BOPTA administration. Precontrast T1 values (T1

resultsT1 DISCUSSION: T1

conclusionGd-BOPTA-enhanced T1 mapping via the B1 inhomogeneity-corrected VFA shows promise as a potentially accurate and reliable tool for quantifying liver fibrosis stages.
