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 retina consists of multiple cellular and synaptic layers and is nourished by two distinct (retinal and choroidal) circulations bounding the retina, separated by an avascular layer. High spatiotemporal resolution, layer-specific MRI of the retina remains challenging due to magnetic inhomogeneity-induced artifacts. This study reports passband balanced steady-state free-precession (bSSFP) MRI at 45×45×500 μm and 1.6 s temporal resolution to image the mouse retina, overcoming geometric distortion and signal dropout while maintaining rapid acquisition and high signal-to-noise ratio. bSSFP images revealed multiple alternating dark-bright-dark-bright retinal layers. Hypoxic (10% O(2) ) inhalation decreased bSSFP signals in the two layers bounding the retina, corresponding to the retinal and choroidal vasculatures. The layer in between showed no substantial response and was assigned the avascular photoreceptor layers. Choroidal responses (-25.9 ± 6.4%, mean ± SD, n=6) were significantly (P<0.05) larger than retinal vascular responses (-11.6±2.4%). bSSFP offers very high spatiotemporal resolution and could have important applications in imaging layer-specific changes in retinal diseases.
