Pretreatment diffusion-weighted imaging for prediction of relapsed and refractory primary central nervous system lymphoma.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Objectives: A subset of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) has been shown to undergo an early relapsed/refractory (R/R) period after first-line chemotherapy. This study investigated the pretreatment clinical and MRI features to predict R/R in PCNSL, emphasizing the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). Methods: This retrospective study investigated the pretreatment MRI features for predicting R/R in PCNSL. Only patients who had undergone complete preoperative and postoperative MRI follow-up studies were included. From January 2006 to December 2021, 52 patients from two medical institutions with a diagnosis of PCNSL were included (median follow-up time, 26.3 months). Among these, 24 (46.2%) had developed R/R (median time to relapse, 13 months). Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were performed to determine hazard ratios for all parameters. Results: Significant predictors of R/R in PCNSL were female sex, complete response (CR) to first-line chemotherapy, and ADC value/ratio ( Conclusion: Pretreatment ADC values in DWI offer quantitative valuable information for the treatment planning in PCNSL.
