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: Currently, no standardized anatomic magnetic resonance (MR) imaging protocol exists for detecting parathyroid adenomas. We analyzed various MR pulse sequences to evaluate their performance in visualizing histopathologically confirmed parathyroid adenomas in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) undergoing [ Methods: This retrospective study included 128 adenomas in 110 patients with biochemically confirmed pHPT who underwent [ Results: Parathyroid adenomas had significantly higher conspicuity, superior delineation, and were larger ( Conclusion: T2w FSE flex water offers significantly better visualization of parathyroid adenomas compared to T1w FSE, especially in orthotopic lesions. These results support the targeted use of such a limited MR protocol as part of PET/MR in the preoperative assessment of patients with pHPT.
