Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MR Imaging of Pediatric Intracranial Tumors: Correlation with Histology and Diagnostic Utility.
Article in AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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.
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
background and purposeIntravoxel incoherent motion imaging, which simultaneously measures diffusion and perfusion parameters, is promising for brain tumor grading. However, intravoxel incoherent motion imaging has not been tested in children. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation between intravoxel incoherent motion parameters and histology to assess the accuracy of intravoxel incoherent motion imaging for pediatric intracranial tumor grading. MATERIALS AND
methodsBetween April 2013 and September 2015, 17 children (11 boys, 6 girls; 2 months to 15 years of age) with intracranial tumors were included in this retrospective study. Intravoxel incoherent motion parameters were fitted using 13 b-values for a biexponential model. The perfusion-free diffusion coefficient, pseudodiffusion coefficient, and perfusion fraction were measured in high- and low-grade tumors. These intravoxel incoherent motion parameters and the ADC were compared using the unpaired
resultsThe perfusion-free diffusion coefficient and ADC were lower in high-grade than in low-grade tumors (perfusion-free diffusion coefficient, 0.85 ± 0.40 versus 1.53 ± 0.21 × 10
conclusionsIntravoxel incoherent motion imaging reflects tumor histology and may be a helpful, noninvasive method for pediatric intracranial tumor grading.
