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

Non-invasive mapping of cerebral perfusion is critical for understanding neurovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. However, perfusion MRI methods cannot be easily implemented for whole-brain studies in mice because of their small size. To overcome this issue, a transient hypoxia stimulus was applied to induce a bolus of deoxyhemoglobins as an endogenous paramagnetic contrast in blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) MRI. Based on stimulus-duration-dependent studies, 5 s anoxic stimulus was chosen, which induced a decrease in arterial oxygenation to 59%. Dynamic susceptibility changes were acquired with whole-brain BOLD MRI using both all-vessel-sensitive gradient-echo and microvascular-sensitive spin-echo readouts. Cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral blood volume (CBV) were quantified by modeling BOLD dynamics using a partial-volume-corrected arterial input function. In the mouse under ketamine/xylazine anesthesia, total CBF and CBV were 112.0 ± 15.0 ml/100 g/min and 3.39 ± 0.59 ml/100 g (n = 15 mice), respectively, whereas microvascular CBF and CBV were 85.8 ± 6.9 ml/100 g/min and 2.23 ± 0.27 ml/100 g (n = 7 mice), respectively. Regional total vs. microvascular perfusion metrics were highly correlated but a slight mismatch was observed in the large-vessel areas and cortical depth profiles. Overall, this non-invasive, repeatable, simple hypoxia BOLD-MRI approach is viable for perfusion mapping of rodents.
