The effect of contrast agents on left ventricular parameters calculated by a threshold-based software module: does it truly matter?
Article in The international journal of cardiovascular imaging, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The acquisition of short-axis (SA) cine magnetic resonance (MR) images after the administration of contrast agent (CA) is a common, time-saving technique, but a decreased difference in the blood-myocardium contrast on these steady-state free precession (SSFP) cine scans could change the calculated parameters when using threshold-based papillary and trabecular muscle (PTM) quantification. We studied the effect of CA on the parameters calculated from pre- and post-CA SA cine images in noncompaction cardiomyopathy (NC-CMP) and healthy (H) participants using a threshold-based module. A total of 39 individuals (20 patients and 19 healthy) were included prospectively in this study. After the pre-CA SA images were acquired, i.v. gadobutrol (GA) or gadobenate dimeglumine (GD) (GA vs. GD: NC-CMP = 12 vs. 8; C = 12 vs. 7) was administered, and SA scans were repeated after two minutes. A threshold-based PTM software was used for postprocessing. Pre-CA and post-CA SA images were analyzed, and the parameters were compared in both the NC-CMP and H groups. The left ventricular volumes were significantly larger, while the left ventricular myocardial (LVmass) and trabecular mass (LVtrab) values were significantly smaller on the post-CA scans (NC-CMP: pre-CA vs. post-CA, EDV: 74.0 ± 13.6 vs. 81.1 ± 16.3 ml/m
