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

The use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in healthcare and the emergence of radiology as a practice are both relatively new compared with the classical specialties in medicine. Having its naissance in the 1970s and later adoption in the 1980s, the use of MRI has grown exponentially, consequently engendering exciting new areas of research. One such development is the use of computational techniques to analyze MRI images much like the way a radiologist would. With the advent of affordable, powerful computing hardware and parallel developments in computer vision, MRI image analysis has also witnessed unprecedented growth. Due to the interdisciplinary and complex nature of this subfield, it is important to survey the current landscape and examine the current approaches for analysis and trend trends moving forward.
