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

objectives: To analyze MRI artefacts induced at 3 T by bioresorbable, titanium (TI) and glass fibre reinforced composite (GFRC) plates for osseous reconstruction.

methods: Fixation plates including bioresorbable polymers (Inion CPS, Inion Oy, Tampere, Finland; Rapidsorb, DePuy Synthes, Umkirch, Germany; Resorb X, Gebrueder KLS Martin GmbH, Tuttlingen, Germany), GFRC (Skulle Implants Oy, Turku, Finland) and TI plates of varying thickness and design (DePuy Synthes, Umkirch, Germany) were embedded in agarose gel and a 3 T MRI was performed using a standard protocol for head and neck imaging including T

results: All TI plates induced significantly more artefacts than resorbable plates in T

conclusions: Polylactide, GFRC and magnesium plates produce less susceptibility artefacts in MRI compared to TI, while the dimensions of TI plates directly influence artefact extension. Slice encoding for metal artefact reduction and ultrashort echo time significantly reduce metal artefacts at the expense of scan time or image resolution.
