Quantitative assessment of cervical spinal cord by diffusion tensor tractography in 3.0 T.
Article in La Radiologia medica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeWe aimed to evaluate the mean values of diffusion tensor tracking (DTT) of cervical spinal cord in normal subjects by using multi-shot EPI (MS-EPI) sequence in 3.0 Tesla (3.0T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
methodsThis retrospective study included 96 healthy subjects. DTI with b-values: 0 and 1000 s/mm
resultsThe number of tracts obtained from round method was significantly higher than the ones from plane method. In round group, there was a moderate positive correlation between age and mean FA values (r = 0.51, P = 0.003), a weak negative correlation between age and MD values (r = - 0.497, P = 0.004) and between age and mean AD values (r = - 0.443, P = 0.011), a moderate negative correlation between age and mean RD values (r = - 0.542, P = 0.001). In plane group, there was a weak positive correlation between age and mean FA values (r = 0.403, P = 0.022) and a weak negative correlation between age and mean RD values (r = - 0.402, P = 0.022).
conclusionOur results might be helpful for emphasizing the reference values and also for evaluating and comparing the pathologic spinal cords affected by degeneration, trauma or tumors.
