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

objectiveThe present study applied in vivo proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( MATERIALS AND

methods7T MRS scans of the OpQT2-Glu were acquired from the prefrontal cortex of five rats. The echo-time-(TE)-specific J-modulation of glutamate was investigated by spectral simulations and analyses for selecting the eight TEs appropriate for T2 estimation of glutamate. The OpQT2-Glu results were compared to those of the typical short-TE MRS and T2 measurements.

resultsNo significant differences were observed between the OpQT2-Glu and typical short-TE MRS (p > 0.050). The estimated glutamate T2 (67.75 ms) of the OpQT2-Glu was similar to the multiple TE MRS for the T2 measurement (71.58 ms) with enhanced signal-to-noise ratio and reliability. DISCUSSION: The results revealed that the quantification reliability of the OpQT2-Glu was comparable to that of the single short-TE MRS and its estimation reliability for the T2 relaxation time of glutamate was enhanced compared to the multiple TE MRS for T2 measurement. Despite certain limitations, the quantification and T2 estimation of glutamate can be concurrently performed within an acceptable scan time via high-field in vivo
