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
objectiveTime-resolved contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is commonly used to noninvasively characterize vascular malformations. However, the spatial and temporal resolution of current methods often compromises the clinical value of the examinations. Constrained reconstruction is a temporal spatial correlation strategy that exploits the relative sparsity of vessels in space to dramatically reduce the amount of data required to generate fast high-resolution time-resolved contrast-enhanced MRA studies. In this report, we use a novel temporal spatial acceleration method termed HYPRFlow to diagnose and classify dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs). Our hypothesis is that HYPRFlow images are of adequate diagnostic image quality to delineate the arterial and venous components of DAVFs and allow correct classification using the Cognard system. SUBJECTS AND
methodsEight patients with known DAVFs underwent HYPRFlow imaging with isotropic resolution of 0.68 mm and temporal resolution of 0.75 second and 3-dimensional time-of-flight (3DTOF) MRA. The 3DTOF images and HYPRFlow images were evaluated by 2 readers and scored for arterial anatomic image quality. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was available for comparison in 7 subjects, and for these patients, each DAVF was classified according to the Cognard system using HYPRFlow and DSA examinations. Digital subtraction angiography was considered the reference examination or criterion standard.
resultsHYPRFlow imaging classification was concordant with DSA in all but 1 case. There was no difference in the arterial image quality scores between HYPRFlow and 3DTOF MRA (95% confidence interval). Arterial-to-venous separation was rated excellent (n = 3), good (n = 4), or poor (n = 1), and arteriovenous shunting was easily appreciated. Undersampling artifacts were reduced by using a low pass filter and did not interfere with the diagnostic quality of the examinations.
conclusionsHYPRFlow is a novel acquisition and reconstruction technique that exploits the relative sparsity of intracranial vessels in space to increase temporal and spatial resolution and provides accurate delineation of DAVF vasculature.
