Noninvasive assessment of steatosis and viability of cold-stored human liver grafts by MRI.
Article in Magnetic resonance in medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeA shortage of suitable donor livers is driving increased use of higher risk livers for transplantation. However, current biomarkers are not sensitive and specific enough to predict posttransplant liver function. This is limiting the expansion of the donor pool. Therefore, better noninvasive tests are required to determine which livers will function following implantation and hence can be safely transplanted. This study assesses the temperature sensitivity of proton density fat fraction and relaxometry parameters and examines their potential for assessment of liver function ex vivo.
methodsSix ex vivo human livers were scanned during static cold storage following normothermic machine perfusion. Proton density fat fraction, T
resultsStrong linear temperature sensitivities were observed for proton density fat fraction (R
conclusionTemperature correction is essential for robust measurement of proton density fat fraction and T
