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

objectiveTo evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of virtual magnetic resonance elastography (vMRE) derived from intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging in distinguishing prostate cancer (PCa) from benign prostate lesion (BPL).

methodsIn this prospective study, patients with suspected prostate lesions underwent 3.0-T MRI, including an IVIM-vMRE sequence, prior to biopsy or surgery. Virtual stiffness maps (µ

resultsThe final cohort comprised 120 patients (70 PCa; 50 BPL). PCa lesions exhibited significantly higher µ

conclusionIVIM-vMRE provides an objective, quantifiable measure of prostate tissue stiffness that correlates with tumor grade. As a non-invasive adjunct to bpMRI, vMRE significantly improves the diagnostic accuracy of PI-RADS v2.1 and facilitates the stratification of tumor aggressiveness.
