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

purposeThere is an increased interest to determine the exchange rate using CEST to provide pH information. However, current CEST quantification methods require lengthy scan times and do not address magnetization transfer effects. The purpose of this work was to apply the magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) concept to CEST to achieve more efficient and accurate exchange rate quantification.

methodsThe proposed CEST fingerprinting method used varying saturation powers and saturation times to create unique signal evolutions for different exchange rates. The acquired signal was matched to a predefined dictionary to determine the exchange rate. The magnetization transfer effects were also addressed in the framework of CEST fingerprinting: The simulated dictionary could predict the signal curves without magnetization transfer effects, and comparing the dictionary to the acquired signals allowed the correction of the magnetization transfer effects. The CEST fingerprinting method was compared with the conventional pulsed quantitative CEST method using omega plots in the creatine phantom study.

resultsThe CEST fingerprinting method has a significantly reduced scan time (10 minutes versus 50 minutes) while providing more accurate exchange rate quantification using literature values as the reference.

conclusionIn this study, we demonstrate that CEST fingerprinting is more efficient (5 times faster) compared with pulsed quantitative CEST. It is also shown that the results of the proposed CEST fingerprinting technique are much closer to the literature values than pulsed quantitative CEST at 3 T.
