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

The goal of this thesis was to elucidate the details of cerebellovascular diseases with advanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (MRI) and to translate the findings to routine clinical MRI. The first aim was to image cerebellar arterial perfusion territories, which was achieved by applying super-selective arterial spin labelling (ASL) MRI with labelling of both vertebral arteries in addition to the carotid arteries. The second aim was to unravel the imaging patterns of cerebellar infarctions with 7T post-mortem MRI in addition to volume (3D) clinical MRI. This research led to the description of "cerebellar cortical infarct cavities", an incidental imaging finding that proved to be the most frequent manifestation of cerebellar ischemia as well as a marker of atherosclerotic and thromboembolic cerebrovascular disease. Finally, we found that almost all patients with such cavities lack a clinical history of vertebrobasilar transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke, disclosing the still very high incidence of clinically occult ischemia in the posterior fossa.
