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

background and purposeDTI is an advanced neuroimaging technique that allows in vivo quantification of water diffusion properties as surrogate markers of the integrity of WM microstructure. In our study, we investigated normative data from a large number of pediatric and adolescent participants to examine the developmental trends in DTI during this conspicuous WM maturation period. MATERIALS AND

methodsDTI data in 202 healthy pediatric and adolescent participants were analyzed retrospectively. Fractional anisotropy and mean diffusivity values in the corpus callosum and internal capsule were fitted to an exponential regression model to delineate age-dependent maturational changes across the WM structures.

resultsThe DTI metrics demonstrated characteristic exponential patterns of progression during development and conspicuous age-dependent changes in the first 36 months, with rostral WM tracts experiencing the highest slope of the exponential function. In contrast, the highest final FA and lowest MD values were detected in the splenium of the corpus callosum and the posterior limb of the internal capsule.

conclusionsOur analysis shows that the more caudal portions of the corpus callosum and internal capsule begin the maturation process earlier than the rostral regions, but the rostral regions develop at a more accelerated pace, which may suggest that rostral regions rely on development of more caudal brain regions to instigate their development. Our normative DTI can be used as a reference to study normal spatiotemporal developmental profiles in the WM and help identify abnormal WM structures in patient populations.
