Quantitative MRI Differentiates Electromyography Severity Grades of Denervated Muscle in Neuropathy of the Brachial Plexus.
Article in Journal of magnetic resonance imaging : JMRI, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundQuantitative MRI (qMRI) metrics reflect microstructural skeletal muscle changes secondary to denervation and may correspond to conventional electromyography (EMG) assessments of motor unit recruitment (MUR) and denervation. HYPOTHESIS: Differences in quantitative T STUDY TYPE: Prospective. POPULATION: A total of 30 subjects (age = 37.5 ± 17.5, 21M/9F) with suspected brachial plexopathy. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE: 3-Tesla; qMRI using fast spin echo (T ASSESSMENT: qMRI values were compared against EMG grades (MUR and denervation). qMRI values (T STATISTICAL TESTS: Linear mixed models and least-squares pairwise comparisons were used to evaluate qMRI differences between EMG grades. Predictive accuracy of EMG grades from qMRI was quantified by 10-fold cross-validated logistic models. A P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
resultsMean (95% confidence interval) qMRI for "full" MUR were T DATA
conclusionQuantitative T LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 2 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 1.
