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
purposeTime-of-flight (TOF)-MR angiography (MRA) is an important imaging sequence for the surveillance and analysis of cerebral arteriovenous shunt (AVS), including arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and arteriovenous fistula (AVF). However, this technique has the disadvantage of a relatively long scan time. The aim of this study was to compare diagnostic accuracy between compressed sensing (CS)-TOF and conventional parallel imaging (PI)-TOF-MRA for detecting and characterizing AVS.
methodsThis study was approved by the institutional review board for human studies. Participants comprised 56 patients who underwent both CS-TOF-MRA and PI-TOF-MRA on a 3-T MR unit with or without cerebral AVS between June 2016 and September 2018. Imaging parameters for both sequences were almost identical, except the acceleration factor of 3× for PI-TOF-MRA and 6.5× for CS-TOF-MRA, and the scan time of 5 min 19 s for PI-TOF-MRA and 2 min 26 s for CS-TOF-MRA. Two neuroradiologists assessed the accuracy of AVS detection on each sequence and analyzed AVS angioarchitecture. Concordance between CS-TOF, PI-TOF, and digital subtraction angiography was calculated using unweighted and weighted kappa statistics.
resultsBoth CS-TOF-MRA and PI-TOF-MRA yielded excellent sensitivity and specificity for detecting intracranial AVS (reviewer 1, 97.3%, 94.7%; reviewer 2, 100%, 100%, respectively). Interrater agreement on the angioarchitectural features of intracranial AVS on CS-MRA and PI-MRA was moderate to good.
conclusionThe diagnostic performance of CS-TOF-MRA is comparable to that of PI-TOF-MRA in detecting and classifying AVS with a reduced scan time under 2.5 min.
