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

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA) contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE-MRI) for determining the gross tumor volume (GTV) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 12 patients diagnosed with HCC (18 lesions) who received radiotherapy and underwent magnetic resonance (MR) simulation. Six series images, including MR T Results: (1) The mean SI of liver tissue reached its peak enhancement at >20 min, showing a 140.90 ± 64.69% increase, compared with T Conclusion: CE-T
