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

purposeSilent corticotroph pituitary adenomas (SCAs)/pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) are common non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFAs)/PitNETs with a clinically aggressive course. This study aimed to investigate the ability of time-intensity analysis of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for distinguishing adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-positive SCAs and ACTH-negative SCAs from other NFAs. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe retrospectively evaluated the dynamic MRI findings of patients with NFAs. The initial slope of the kinetic curve (slope

resultsA total of 106 patients with NFAs (11 ACTH-positive SCAs, 5 ACTH-negative SCAs, and 90 other NFAs) were evaluated. The kinetic curves of ACTH-positive SCAs had significantly lesser slope

conclusionsDynamic MRI can distinguish ACTH-positive SCAs and ACTH-negative SCAs from other NFAs.
