High-b diffusivity of MS lesions in cervical spinal cord using ultrahigh-b DWI (UHb-DWI).
Article in NeuroImage. Clinical, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate UHb-rDWI signal in white matter tracts of the cervical spinal cord (CSC) and compare quantitative values between healthy control WM with both MS NAWM and MS WM lesions.
methodsUHb-rDWI experiments were performed on (a) 7 MS patients with recently active or chronic lesions in CSC and on (b) 7 healthy control of similar age range and gender distribution to MS subjects. All MRI data were acquired using clinical 3T MRI system. Axial high-b diffusion images were acquired using 2D single-shot DW stimulated EPI with reduced FOV and a CSC-dedicated 8 channel array coil.
