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

Desmoid tumors (DTs) are rare, locally aggressive soft tissue neoplasms with highly variable clinical behavior. Although benign, their infiltrative nature can lead to considerable morbidity. DTs present a major challenge due to their unpredictable behavior and potential for misdiagnosis. Recently, there has been a large shift in the treatment strategy for DTs, and the number of cases being followed up with imaging has increased. Cryoablation has emerged as a minimally invasive treatment option, yet post-procedural imaging features remain poorly characterized. This study illustrates the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evolution of DTs following percutaneous cryoablation, emphasizing key patterns across pre-treatment, intra-procedural, and follow-up studies. The available MRI follow-up ranged from 6 to 30 months. Through a pictorial approach, we aimed to provide radiologists with practical insights to avoid misinterpretation of expected post-treatment changes as recurrence and to improve clinical management.
