Diffusion-Weighted Echo Planar Imaging using MUltiplexed Sensitivity Encoding and Reverse Polarity Gradient in Head and Neck Cancer: An Initial Study.
Article in Tomography (Ann Arbor, Mich.), 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
We aimed to compare the geometric distortion (GD) correction performance and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements of single-shot diffusion-weighted echo-planar imaging (SS-DWEPI), multiplexed sensitivity encoding (MUSE)-DWEPI, and MUSE-DWEPI with reverse-polarity gradient (RPG) in phantoms and patients. We performed phantom studies at 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using the American College of Radiology phantom and Quantitative Imaging Biomarker Alliance DW-MRI ice-water phantom to assess GD and effect of distortion in the measurement of ADC, respectively. Institutional review board approved the prospective clinical component of this study. DW-MRI data were obtained from 11 patients with head and neck cancer using these three DW-MRI methods. Wilcoxon signed-rank (WSR) and Kruskal-Wallis (KW) tests were used to compare ADC values, and qualitative rating by radiologist between three DW-MRI methods. In the ACR phantom, GD of 0.17% was observed for the b = 0 s/mm
