1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Multi-Dynamic Multi-Echo (MDME) Sequence is a new method which can acquire various contrast-weighted images using quantitative relaxometric parameters measured from multicontrast images. The purpose of our study was to investigate the effect of scan parameters of MDME Sequence on measured T1, T2 values of phantoms at 3.0 T MRI scanner. Gray matter, white matter and cerebrospinal fluid simulation phantoms with different relaxation times (named GM, WM, CSF, respectively) were used in our study. All the phantoms were scanned 9 times on different days using MDME sequence with variations of echo train length, matrix, and acceleration factor. The T1, T2 measurements were acquired after each acquisition. The repeatability was characterized as the intragroup coefficient of variation (CV) of measured values over 9 times, and the discrepancies of measurements across different groups were characterized as intergroup CVs. The highest intragroup CVs of T1-GM, T2-GM, T1-WM, T2-WM, T1-CSF, T2-SCF were 1.36%, 1.75%, 0.74%, 1.41%, 1.70%, 7.79%, respectively. The highest intergroup CVs of T1-GM, T2-GM, T1-WM, T2-WM, T1-CSF, T2-SCF were 0.54%, 1.86%, 1.70%, 0.94%, 1.00%, 2.17%, respectively. Quantitative T1, T2 measurements of gray matter, white matter and cerebrospinal fluid simulation phantoms derived from the MDME sequence were not obviously affected by variations of scanning parameters, such as echo train length, matrix, and acceleration factor on 3T scanner.
