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

purposeIn ultrashort echo time (UTE) imaging, fat suppression can improve short T

methodsThe proposed method utilizes dual-echo UTE imaging, where UTE is followed by the second TE, chosen flexibly. Fat is estimated by applying a 1p-Dixon method to the non-UTE image after correction of phase errors, which is used to suppress fat in the UTE image. In vivo ankle and knee imaging were performed at 3 T to evaluate the proposed method.

resultIt was observed that fat and water signals in tendons were misestimated by the 2p-Dixon method due to signal decay, while the 1p-Dixon method showed reliable fat and water separation not affected by the short T

conclusionThe proposed 1p-Dixon based fat suppression allows more flexible selection of imaging parameters and more accurate fat and water separation over the conventional 2p-Dixon in UTE imaging. Moreover, the proposed method provides much improved CNR for short T
