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

purposeTo evaluate the transient artifact augmentation of microtubes in magnetic resonance imaging by fluid injection.

methodsTwenty-one fluorinated ethylene propylene catheters (inner diameter 760 μm) were filled with three different contrast media at various concentrations (Ferucarbotran, Resovist®, Bayer Schering Pharma; Manganese dichloride, MnCl2, Sigma-Aldrich; Gadobutrol, Gadovist®, Bayer Schering Pharma). Artifact appearance was determined in an ex vivo phantom at 1.5 T using three different sequences: T1-weighted three-dimensional volume interpolated breath-hold examination, T2-weighted turbo spin echo, and T1-weighted fast low angle shot. Catheter angulation to the main magnetic field (B0) was varied. Influence of parameters on artifact diameters was assessed with a multiple linear regression similar to an analysis of variance.

resultsArtifact diameter was significantly influenced by the contrast agent (p < 0.001), concentration of the contrast agent (p < 0.001), angulation of the phantom to B0 with the largest artifact at 90° (p < 0.001), and encoding direction with a larger diameter in phase encoding direction (PED, p < 0.001). Mean artifact diameters at 90° angulation to B0 in PED were 18.5 ± 5.4 mm in 0.5 mmol/ml Ferucarbotran, 8.7 ± 2.5 mm in 1 mmol/ml Gadobutrol, and 11.6 ± 4.6 mm in 5 mmol/ml MnCl

conclusionsFluid-based contrast agents might be applied to interventional devices and thus temporarily augment the artifact ensuring both visibility and safe navigation.
