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: Pulmonary metastasis is a major cause of mortality in dogs with cancers, but traditional thoracic imaging methods, such as radiographs and computed tomography (CT), have limited sensitivity for detecting small nodules. Objective: This study aimed to characterize metastatic pulmonary nodules in dogs using Animals and procedure: A total of 109 pulmonary nodules detected on Results: Nodule size and SUVmax varied highly, with a median diameter of 6.4 mm (range: 5 to 20 mm) and median SUVmax of 3.72 (range: 0.7 to 27.45). A moderate but positive correlation was noted between nodule size and SUVmax (τ = 0.526; Conclusion and clinical relevance: Our findings contribute to the growing body of research on
