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 recent development of highly undersampled radial gradient echo sequences in combination with nonlinear inverse image reconstruction now allows for MRI examinations in real time. Image acquisition times as short as 20 ms yield MRI videos with rates of up to 50 frames per second with spin density, T1- and T2-type contrast. The addition of an initial 180° inversion pulse achieves accurate T1 mapping within only 4 s. These technical advances promise specific advantages for studies of infants and young children by eliminating the need for sedation or anesthesia. Our preliminary data demonstrate new diagnostic opportunities ranging from dynamic studies of speech and swallowing processes and body movements to a rapid volumetric assessment of brain cerebrospinal fluid spaces in only few seconds. Real-time MRI of the heart and blood flow can be performed without electrocardiogram gating and under free breathing. The present findings support the idea that real-time MRI will complement existing methods by providing long-awaited diagnostic options for patients in early childhood. Major advantages are the avoidance of sedation or anesthesia and the yet unexplored potential to gain insights into arbitrary body functions.
