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

objectivesOur aim was to evaluate the detectability of cortical superficial siderosis (cSS) by 3D FLAIR and 3D DIR images in comparison with the SWI images in patients with cognitive dysfunction.

methodsWe studied 246 patients with cognitive dysfunction (144 women, 102 men; mean age: 75.5 ± 7.53 years) who visited a memory clinic at our hospital and underwent MR examinations at 3 T. Specifically, 16 patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) (n = 11) and AD with cerebrovascular disease (n = 5) manifested cSS based on SWI. Each set of MR images (3D FLAIR and 3D DIR) was reviewed by two reviewers separately for the detection of sulcal hyperintensity that suggested cSS.

resultsSWI detected a greater number of cSS sulci than 3D DIR and 3D FLAIR. The sensitivity and specificity for the detection of sulcal hyperintensity were the same between 3D FLAIR and 3D DIR (87.5%/100%). However, 3D DIR detected a greater number of cSS sulci than 3D FLAIR (p = .005).

conclusionsOur study showed that 3D DIR and 3D FLAIR can detect sulcal hyperintensity related to cSS although they are less sensitive to cSS lesions than SWI. KEY POINTS: • 3D FLAIR and 3D DIR can show sulcal signal abnormalities related to cSS in patients with cognitive dysfunction. • 3D FLAIR and 3D DIR detect sulcal hyperintensity of cSS, although they are less sensitive to cSS than SWI. • Signal alterations due to cSS are more detectable in 3D DIR than in 3D FLAIR.
