Quantitative pharmacokinetic analysis of high-temporal-resolution dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI to differentiate the normal-appearing pituitary gland from pituitary macroadenoma.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeTo evaluate the usefulness of high-temporal-resolution dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI and quantitative pharmacokinetic analysis to differentiate the normal-appearing pituitary gland from a pituitary macroadenoma. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwenty-seven patients with macroadenomas underwent preoperative DCE-MRI with a temporal resolution of 5 s using compressed sensing to obtain pharmacokinetic parameters. Two independent observers localized the normal-appearing pituitary gland on post-contrast T1-weighted images before and after referring to the corresponding K
resultsFor both observers, the agreement between the MRI-based localization and the intraoperative findings increased after referring to the K
conclusionHigh-temporal-resolution DCE-MRI and quantitative pharmacokinetic analysis help accurately localize the normal-appearing pituitary gland in patients with macroadenomas. The normal-appearing pituitary gland was characterized by higher K
