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

objectEddy current compensation by dynamic reference phase modulation (eDREAM) is a compensation method for eddy current fields induced by B 0 field-cycling which occur in delta relaxation enhanced MR (dreMR) imaging. The presented method is based on a dynamic frequency adjustment and prevents eddy current related artifacts. It is easy to implement and can be completely realized in software for any imaging sequence. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this paper, the theory of eDREAM is derived and two applications are demonstrated. The theory describes how to model the behavior of the eddy currents and how to implement the compensation. Phantom and in vivo measurements are carried out and demonstrate the benefits of eDREAM.

resultsA comparison of images acquired with and without eDREAM shows a significant improvement in dreMR image quality. Images without eDREAM suffer from severe artifacts and do not allow proper interpretation while images with eDREAM are artifact free. In vivo experiments demonstrate that dreMR imaging without eDREAM is not feasible as artifacts completely change the image contrast.

conclusioneDREAM is a flexible eddy current compensation for dreMR. It is capable of completely removing the influence of eddy currents such that the dreMR images do not suffer from artifacts.
