Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging on hybrid magnetic resonance linear accelerators: Perspective on technical and clinical validation.
Review in Physics and imaging in radiation oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
Many preclinical and clinical observations support that functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), such as diffusion weighted (DW) and dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI, might have a predictive value for radiotherapy. The aim of this review was to assess the current status of quantitative MRI on hybrid MR-Linacs. In a literature research, four publications were identified, investigating technical feasibility, accuracy, repeatability and reproducibility of DW and DCE-MRI in phantoms and first patients. Accuracy and short term repeatability was < 5% for DW-MRI in current MR-Linac systems. Consequently, quantitative imaging providing accurate and reproducible functional information seems possible in MR-Linacs.
