Usefulness of non-contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging prior to venous interventions.

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
introductionThe number of venous interventions continues to rise. The outcome of venous procedures is related to appropriate stent selection and implantation.
aimTo compare the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in the determination of target vein section area (VSA) as techniques for selecting an appropriate diameter for a venous stent. MATERIAL AND
methodsVSAs of iliac and common femoral veins obtained in contrast-enhanced MRI (CE-MRI) and non-contrast-enhanced MRI (NCE-MRI) were calculated for 18 consecutive patients with post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), and VSAs obtained using IVUS were calculated for 15 of these PTS patients.
resultsThe differences in iliac and common femoral vein VSAs obtained using CE-MRI and NCE-MRI were small and not clinically significant. VSAs of vessels obtained using CE-MRI and NCE-MRI correlated significantly with each other, with
conclusionsCE magnetic resonance venography can be replaced by Dixon-based NCE-MRI in the preoperative evaluation of patients with PTS who qualify for venous intervention. However, CE-MRI and NCE-MRI performed for ipsilateral and contralateral extremities are not sufficient for appropriate venous stent selection, and IVUS remains a necessary tool in determining venous intervention in iliac veins.
