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

Objectives: Primary liver tumors constitute one of the most common tumors. These are aggressive tumors with poor survival. Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), most commonly used functional imaging, shows limited tracer retention and poor tumor to background ratios (TBR). Novel Methods: Literature available on head to head comparison of diagnostic accuracy of Results: Pooled sensitivity and specificity of FAPI PET/CT and Conclusion: Overall, FAPI PET/CT showed higher sensitivity for detection of liver tumors with better SUV
