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

The capability to use high-resolution (3)He MRI to depict regional ventilation changes and airway narrowing in mice challenged with methacholine (MCh) offers the opportunity to gain new insights into the study of asthma. However, to fully exploit the value of this novel technique, it is important to move beyond visual inspection of the images toward automated and quantitative analysis. To address this gap, we describe a postprocessing approach to create ventilation difference maps to better visualize and quantify regional ventilation changes before and after MCh challenge. We show that difference maps reveal subtle changes in airway caliber, and highlight both focal and diffuse regional alterations in ventilation. Ventilation changes include both hypoventilation and compensatory areas of hyperventilation. The difference maps can be quantified by a histogram plot of the ventilation changes, in which the standard deviation increases with MCh dose (R(2) = 0.89). This method of analysis is shown to be more sensitive than simple threshold-based detection of gross ventilation defects.
