Dual-Tuned Lattice Balun for Multi-Nuclear MRI and MRS.
Article in IEEE transactions on medical imaging, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Balun or trap circuits are critical components for suppressing common-mode currents flowing on the outer conductors of coaxial cables in RF coil systems for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS). Common-mode currents affect coils' tuning and matching, induce losses, pick up extra noise from the surrounding environment, lead to undesired cross-talk, and cause safety concerns in animal and human imaging. First proposed for microwave antenna applications, the Lattice balun has been widely used in MRI coils. It has a small footprint and can be easily integrated with coil tuning/matching circuits. However, the Lattice balun is typically a single-tuned circuit and cannot be used for multi-nuclear MRI and MRS with two RF frequencies. This work describes a dual-tuned Lattice balun design that is suitable for multi-nuclear MRI/MRS. It was first analyzed theoretically to derive component values. RF circuit simulations were then performed to validate the theoretical analysis and provide guidance for practical construction. Based on the simulation results, a dual-tuned balun circuit was built for 7T
