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

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) can noninvasively detect metabolites in vivo, including glutamate (Glu). However, quantification is known to be affected by the overlaps among metabolite resonance lines and background macromolecule signals. We found that adding a moderate amount of noise or line broadening (2 Hz) caused large variations in concentration of Glu and other metabolites, when determined by LCModel analysis of in vivo short-echo time (TE) spectra. Theses variations were largely attributed to strong spectral baselines in short TE spectra, especially near 2.35 ppm, as well as overlapping metabolite resonance lines. To address this issue, we acquired in vivo data at 3 T using both short-TE and the multiple echo time J-resolved point-resolved spectroscopy (JPRESS) MRS techniques. We found that one-dimensional (1D) JPRESS, by simultaneously fitting the two cross-sections of JPRESS at J = 0 and J = 7.5 Hz, was highly resistant to variations in noise levels and spectral linewidths. Our results demonstrate that LCModel analysis of short-TE data is highly sensitive to variations in noise levels and spectral linewidths and this sensitivity is greatly reduced by 1D JPRESS given its substantially reduced baselines and enhanced spectral resolution.
