High spatial resolution whole-neck MR angiography using thin-slab stack-of-stars quiescent interval slice-selective acquisition.
Article in Magnetic resonance in medicine, 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 report a 3D multi-echo thin-slab stack-of-stars (tsSOS) quiescent-interval slice-selective (QISS) strategy for high-resolution magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) of the entire neck in under seven minutes.
methodsThe neck arteries of eight subjects were imaged at 3 Tesla. Multi-echo 3D tsSOS QISS using a FLASH readout was compared with 3D tsSOS FLASH, 2D QISS, 2D TOF, and 3D TOF. A root-mean-square (RMS) combination of echo time images was tested. Evaluation metrics included arterial signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), arterial-to-muscle contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), and image quality.
results3D multi-echo tsSOS QISS using a RMS combination of echo time images increased SNR and CNR by 60% and 63% with respect to the reconstruction obtained with the shortest echo time. 3D tsSOS QISS showed superior CNR with respect to 3D tsSOS FLASH imaging, and more than 3-fold higher SNR and CNR with respect to 2D radial QISS when normalized for voxel size. 3D tsSOS QISS provided good to excellent image quality that exceeded the image quality of 2D QISS, 2D TOF, and 3D TOF (P < .05).
conclusionWhole-neck high-resolution nonenhanced MRA is feasible using 3D tsSOS QISS, and produced image quality that exceeded those of competing nonenhanced MRA protocols at 3 Tesla.
