Influence of blade width and magnetic field strength on the ADC on PROPELLER DWI in head and neck.

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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of blade width and magnetic field strength on apparent diffusion coefficient values of periodically rotated overlapping parallel lines with enhanced reconstruction (PROPELLER) diffusion-weighted imaging in the head and neck at 1.5 and 3.0 T magnetic resonance imaging.
methodsFifteen healthy volunteers (eight men and seven women; mean age 36.4 ± 10.1 years) underwent PROPELLER diffusion-weighted imaging using four blade widths at 3.0 T and three blade widths at 1.5 T. For the multigroup comparison of apparent diffusion coefficient values, we performed analysis of variance and Tukey-Kramer tests. The apparent diffusion coefficient values in each organ were compared among the different blade widths and magnetic field strengths by a
resultsNo significant differences were observed in apparent diffusion coefficient values of the cerebellum in each blade width at both field strengths. The apparent diffusion coefficient values of the right parotid glands were significantly lower for blade width 32 than for blade width 16 at 3.0 T (1.16 × 10
conclusionThe largest blade width 32 at 3.0 T and high magnetic field strength lowered the apparent diffusion coefficient values of parotid glands of PROPELLER diffusion-weighted imaging. The apparent diffusion coefficient values in the parotid glands of PROPELLER diffusion-weighted imaging may be affected for blade width and magnetic field strength.
