Repeatability of MR fingerprinting in normal cervix and utility in cervical carcinoma.

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
backgroundMagnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) is a fast-imaging acquisition technique that generates quantitative and co-registered parametric maps. The aim of this feasibility study was to evaluate the agreement between MRF and phantom reference values, scan-rescan repeatability of MRF in normal cervix, and its ability to distinguish cervical carcinoma (CC) from normal cervical tissues.
methodsAn International Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine/National Institute of Standards and Technology (ISMRM/NIST) phantom was scanned using MRF 15 times over 65 days. Agreement between MRF and phantom reference T1 and T2 values was assessed by linear regression. Healthy volunteers and patients with suspected CC were prospectively recruited. MRF was repeated twice for healthy volunteers (MRF1 and MRF2). Volumes of interest of normal cervical tissues and CC were delineated on T1 and T2 maps. MRF scan-rescan repeatability was evaluated by Bland-Altman plots, within-subject coefficients of variation (wCV), and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC). T1 and T2 values were compared between CC and normal cervical tissues using Mann-Whitney U test. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to evaluate diagnostic efficiency.
resultsStrong correlations were observed between MRF and phantom (R
conclusionsExcellent agreement was observed between MRF and phantom reference values. MRF exhibited excellent scan-rescan repeatability in normal cervix with potential value in differentiating CC from normal cervical tissues.
