Discordance of motion artifacts on magnetic resonance imaging in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease: comparison of diffusion-weighted and conventional imaging sequences.
Article in Radiation medicine, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeMotion artifact is problematic in the diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) because of dementia. The purpose was to compare the occurrence of this artifact between a diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging sequence and conventional sequences. MATERIALS AND
methodsTen MR examinations comprising T2-weighted, T1-weighted, DW, and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery imaging in seven CJD patients were retrospectively evaluated. The occurrence of motion artifacts on each sequence were assessed, and the examination was classified into four groups as follows: group A, motion artifact not revealed on DW imaging but revealed on one or more other sequences; group B, revealed on DW imaging and one or more other sequences; group C, not revealed on any sequences; and group D, revealed on DW imaging but not on any other sequences.
resultsThe 10 MR examinations were classified as eight group A (80%), one B (10%), one C (10%), and zero D (0%).
conclusionMotion artifacts are likely to occur in any conventional imaging sequences in CJD, but the fast-imaging ability of DW imaging can reduce this artifact. The combination of an absence of motion artifact on DW imaging and the presence on conventional sequences may be one of the frequent findings of CJD.
