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: Deep learning-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reconstruction has shown promise in improving image quality and reducing scan time. However, its impact on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and quantitative parameters such as apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in patients with intracranial tumors remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the impact of deep learning-based MRI reconstruction on the quality of diffusion-weighted images and the measurements of lesion ADC in patients with intracranial tumors. Additionally, it assessed the potential influence of this reconstruction method on the consistency of ADC-based quantitative analysis. Methods: This single-center, prospective intra-individual study involved 58 consecutive adults diagnosed with intracranial space-occupying lesions through imaging and/or pathology. These patients underwent brain MRI between January and May 2025, and all received standard single-b-value DWI (b=1,000 s/mm Results: Compared with conventional reconstruction, DLR significantly reduced background SI (29.40±5.05 Conclusions: Under a conventional single-b-value DWI protocol (b=1,000 s/mm
