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

In this study, we quantified perfusion deficits using dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging (DSC-MRI) with an extravasating contrast agent (CA). We also investigated the efficacy of leakage compensation from CA pre-load in brains from post-ischemic rat models without significant dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI)-derived vessel wall permeability. DSC measurements were obtained using fast (0.3 s) echo-planar imaging in both normal rats and rats with transient middle carotid artery occlusion (MCAO) (1-h MCAO, 24-h reperfusion) after successive administrations of gadoterate meglumine (Dotarem) and intravascular superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION). The relative cerebral blood volume (CBV) and cerebral blood flow (CBF) values acquired using Dotarem were significantly underestimated (~20%) when compared to those acquired using SPION in ipsilesional post-ischemic brain regions. A slight overestimation of relative mean transit time was observed. Areas with underestimated CBV and CBF values from the corresponding error maps encompassed the area of infarcted tissue (apparent diffusion coefficient < 500 μm2/s) and mostly coincided with the area wherein conspicuous longitudinal relaxation time differences were observed pre- vs. post-injection of Dotarem. The DSC measurements with significant pre-load (0.3 mmol·kg-1) of Dotarem displayed minimal perfusion deficits when compared to those determined using the reference intravascular SPION.
