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

Conventional size-based criteria have limitations in accurately assessing neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) response in soft tissue sarcomas (STS). This systematic review evaluated the association between dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) parameters and histopathology-based response to NAT in STS and summarized which DCE-MRI parameters show the most consistent associations across diverse clinical contexts. Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a comprehensive search was conducted to identify studies evaluating treatment response to NAT in STS using DCE-MRI. Thirteen studies comprising 234 patients were included. Quantitative DCE-MRI parameters, particularly K
