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

backgroundMR-compatible metallic stents have been widely used for the treatment of arterial occlusive diseases. However, conventional MR techniques have difficulty in accurately localizing the stent position and access the stent restenosis because of the susceptibility and radiofrequency (RF) shielding artifacts caused by the stent mesh. Previous studies have demonstrated that a susceptibility-based positive contrast MR method exhibits excellent efficacy for visualizing MR compatible metal devices. However, the method had not been evaluated in the visualization of stents and for the assessment of stent restenosis.

methodsThe susceptibility-based positive contrast MR method was used to visualize the nitinol stents and assess the stent restenosis by comparing two typical MR positive contrast techniques, i.e., susceptibility gradient mapping using the original resolution (SUMO) and the gradient echo acquisition for super-paramagnetic particles (GRASP) with positive contrast.

resultsThree sets of experiments were respectively performed to investigate the influence of stent orientation and spatial resolution on the susceptibility-based method, and to demonstrate the feasibility of the susceptibility-based method in evaluating the stent restenosis comparing to the two typical MR positive contrast methods, GRASP and SUMO.

conclusionsThe susceptibility-based method provides better visualization and localization of the stent than SUMO and GRASP and has the capability of assessing the stent restenosis.
