Assessment of carotid artery atherosclerotic disease by using three-dimensional fast black-blood MR imaging: comparison with DSA.
Article in Radiology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 papers.
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.
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 assess fast three-dimensional (3D) black-blood (BB) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging as a noninvasive alternative to intraarterial digital subtraction angiography (DSA) at quantifying moderate to severe carotid artery atherosclerotic disease. MATERIALS AND
methodsLocal ethics committee approval and written informed patient consent were obtained for this study. Sixty-five carotid arteries from 52 patients with at least 50% stenosis underwent 3D BB MR imaging and DSA. Quantitative measurements, including stenosis, lesion length, and the presence or absence of plaque ulceration, obtained with the two modalities were independently determined. Sensitivity and specificity, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), Cohen κ, and Bland-Altman analysis were used to assess the agreement.
resultsExcellent agreement in measuring luminal stenosis was found between 3D BB MR imaging and DSA (ICC, 0.96; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.93, 0.97). Three-dimensional BB MR imaging was also found to have high sensitivity (91.7%), specificity (96.2%), and agreement (Cohen κ, 0.85; 95% CI: 0.66, 0.99) with DSA for detection of ulcers. Good agreement was found between lesion length measured by using 3D BB MR imaging and DSA (ICC, 0.75; 95% CI: 0.51, 0.84). However, lesion length measurements by using 3D BB MR imaging were, on average, 4.0 mm longer than those measured by using DSA (P < .001).
conclusionThree-dimensional BB MR imaging is a noninvasive and accurate way to quantify moderate to severe carotid artery atherosclerotic disease. With fast acquisition and large coverage, 3D BB MR imaging has the potential to become an alternative imaging approach in evaluating the severity of atherosclerosis.
