Improved Activation and Hemodynamic Response Function of Olfactory fMRI Using Simultaneous Multislice with Reduced TR Acquisition.
Article in BioMed research international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectivesThe respiration could decrease the time synchronization between odor stimulation and data acquisition, consequently deteriorating the functional activation and hemodynamic response function (HRF) in olfactory functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) with a conventional repetition time (TR). In this study, we aimed to investigate whether simultaneous multislice (SMS) technology with reduced TR could improve the blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) activation and optimize HRF modeling in olfactory fMRI.
methodsSixteen young healthy subjects with normal olfaction underwent olfactory fMRI on a 3T MRI scanner using a 64 channel head coil. FMRI data were acquired using SMS acceleration at three different TRs: 3000 ms, 1000 ms, and 500 ms. Both metrics of BOLD activation (activated voxels, mean, and maximum
resultsThe 500 ms and 1000 ms TRs both significantly improved the number of activated voxels, mean, and maximum
conclusionsThe fast image acquisition technique of SMS with reduced TR could significantly improve the functional activation and HRF curve in olfactory fMRI.
