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

purposeThe development and implementation of a spectrally selective 3D-Turbo Spin Echo sequence for quantitative mapping of phosphocreatine (PCr) concentration in different muscles of the lower leg of healthy volunteers both at 3 T and 7 T.

methodsNine healthy volunteers were recruited, all of whom where scanned at 3 T and 7 T. Three dimensional PCr concentration maps were obtained after images were corrected for B1 inhomogeneities, T1 relaxation weighting, and partial volume of fatty tissue in the muscles. Two volunteers performed plantar flexions inside the magnet, and the oxidative capacity of their muscles was estimated.

resultsThree dimensional PCr concentration maps were obtained, with full muscle coverage and nominal voxel size of 0.52 mL at both fields. At 7 T a 2.7-fold increase of signal-to-noise ratio was achieved compared to 3 T.

conclusionImaging (31) P metabolites at 7 T allowed for significant increase in signal to noise ratio compared to imaging at 3 T, while quantification of the PCr concentration remained unaffected. The importance of such an increase in signal-to-noise ratio is 2-fold, first higher resolution images with reduced partial volume effects can be acquired, and second multiple measurements such as dynamic imaging of PCr post-exercise, (31) P magnetization transfer, or other (1) H measurements, can be acquired in a single imaging session.
