Non-uniform gastric wall kinematics revealed by 4D Cine magnetic resonance imaging in humans.
Article in Neurogastroenterology and motility, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
backgroundAssessment of gastric function in humans has relied on modalities with varying degrees of invasiveness, which are usually limited to the evaluation of single aspects of gastric function, thus requiring patients to undergo a number of often invasive tests for a full clinical understanding. Therefore, the development of a non-invasive tool able to concurrently assess multiple aspects of gastric function is highly desirable for both research and clinical assessments of gastrointestinal (GI) function. Recently, technological advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have provided new tools for dynamic (or "cine") body imaging. Such approaches can be extended to GI applications.
methodsIn the present work, we propose a non-invasive assessment of gastric function using a four-dimensional (4D, volumetric cine imaging), free-breathing MRI sequence with gadolinium-free contrast enhancement achieved through a food-based meal. In healthy subjects, we successfully estimated multiple parameters describing gastric emptying, motility, and peristalsis propagation patterns. KEY
resultsOur data demonstrated non-uniform kinematics of the gastric wall during peristaltic contraction, highlighting the importance of using volumetric data to derive motility measures. CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES: MRI has the potential of becoming an important clinical and gastric physiology research tool, providing objective parameters for the evaluation of impaired gastric function.
