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

purposeTo investigate the characteristics of nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE) imaging signals in the brain at 7T.

methodsFresh hen eggs, as well as six healthy, and six C6 glioma-bearing Wistar rats were scanned using chemical exchange saturation transfer-magnetic resonance imaging (CEST-MRI) and chemical exchange saturation transfer-magnetic resonance spectroscopy (CEST-MRS) sequences (saturation duration 3 s, power 1.47 µT) with and without lipid suppression. CEST data were acquired over an offset range of -6 to +6 ppm relative to the water resonance in 0.5 ppm steps.

resultsThe water signals were not disrupted by other protons during the CEST-MRS sequences, and true NOE signals could be observed. Using the CEST-MRI sequence without lipid suppression, pseudo NOE imaging signals were observed in the lipid-containing regions (egg yolk, scalp, and even white matter). These pseudo NOE signals were almost (but incompletely) removed with the lipid suppression. Egg yolk results indicated the presence of the NOE to olefinic protons overlapping with the water signal. In vivo experiments showed that the amide proton transfer signal was larger in the tumor, whereas the NOE signal was larger in the normal white matter.

conclusionsTrue NOE signals can be detected using MRS sequences, and considerable pseudo NOE imaging signals may be observed using MRI sequences.
