Quantitative susceptibility mapping of the motor cortex: a comparison of susceptibility among patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, cerebrovascular disease, and healthy controls.
Article in Neuroradiology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in motor cortex susceptibility among patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), cerebrovascular disease (CVD), and healthy controls using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM).
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 78 QSM images from 26 patients with ALS, 26 age- and sex-matched patients with CVD, and 26 healthy controls. A region of interest was drawn in the hand lobule of both the motor cortexes and subcortical white matter. The relative susceptibility (RS) of the motor cortex was obtained by subtracting the susceptibility of the subcortical white matter from that of the motor cortex. We compared the cortex
resultsThere were significant differences in the cortex
conclusionQuantitative measurements of susceptibility of the motor cortex with QSM demonstrate its potential as an imaging biomarker in ALS patients.
