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.
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
Objective: To investigate the differences between fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography (US) in measuring head circumference (HC) and biparietal diameter (BPD), and to develop and validate a regression model for predicting US-equivalent values based on MRI measurements. Methods: Imaging data of 124 mid-to-late trimester fetuses were retrospectively included. The differences in HC and BPD measurements between the two modalities were quantitatively analyzed. A regression model was constructed using MRI measurements, gestational age (GA), and the time interval between examinations as independent variables to predict the US-equivalent values (USpred). Results: Compared with US, MRI demonstrated significant systematic overestimation for both HC (mean difference: 14.0 mm, Conclusion: Fetal MRI measurements of HC and BPD show a systematic overestimation compared to US. The USpred model can effectively correct for this systematic bias in MRI measurements and the influence of examination time intervals, significantly improving agreement with commonly used clinical US standards. It provides a reliable tool for the precise assessment of prenatal MRI.
