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

Multisystem diseases frequently present with overlapping clinical and imaging manifestations, making diagnosis challenging and often delayed. Many of these entities involve the abdomen early in the disease course, and abdominal imaging may provide the first clue to a systemic process. A pattern-based imaging approach is therefore essential for narrowing the differential diagnosis and guiding further clinical evaluation. This review highlights the multimodality imaging features of several important multisystem inflammatory and infiltrative diseases encountered in abdominal radiology, including IgG4-related disease, Behçet disease, Erdheim-Chester disease, amyloidosis, and sarcoidosis. For each entity, key abdominal manifestations are emphasized alongside characteristic extra-abdominal imaging findings that may support the diagnosis. Imaging appearances with an emphasis on abdominal findings across computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and
