Rapid MR Angiography Using 3D Gradient-echo Imaging and the Two-point Dixon Method to Evaluate Carotid Plaque.

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
Liver acquisition with volume acceleration-flex (LAVA-Flex) acquires out-of-phase and in-phase echo images and automatically generates water-only and fat-only images from one single acquisition. The scan time of carotid MR angiography (MRA) using LAVA-Flex (LAVA MRA) is about one-fifth that of conventional time-of-flight MRA (cTOF MRA). We aimed to investigate whether LAVA MRA could provide useful information for the diagnosis of carotid plaque by utilizing the ability to acquire multiple sequences simultaneously. Comparing LAVA MRA and cTOF MRA images for carotid plaque, low-intensity plaques were more clearly identified in the in-phase images, and high-intensity plaques were more clearly identified in the water-only or out-of-phase images. None of the plaques exhibited superior visualization with the cTOF sequence. We concluded that LAVA MRA can provide more useful information on plaque evaluation using multiple sequences than cTOF MRA.
