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

purposeVery high gradient amplitudes played out over extended time intervals as required for second-order motion-compensated cardiac DTI may violate the assumption of a linear time-invariant gradient system model. The aim of this work was to characterize diffusion gradient-related system nonlinearity and propose a correction approach for echo-planar and spiral spin-echo motion-compensated cardiac DTI.

methodsDiffusion gradient-induced eddy currents of 9 diffusion directions were characterized at b values of 150 s/mm

resultsDiffusion gradient-induced eddy currents exhibited nonlinear effects when scaling up the gradient amplitude and could not be described by a 3D basis alone. This indicates that a gradient impulse response function does not suffice to describe diffusion gradient-induced eddy currents. Zeroth- and first-order diffusion gradient-induced eddy current effects of up to -1.7 rad and -16 to +12 rad/m, respectively, were identified. Zeroth- and first-order diffusion gradient-induced eddy current correction yielded improved image quality upon image reconstruction.

conclusionThe proposed approach offers correction of diffusion gradient-induced zeroth- and first-order eddy currents, reducing image distortions to promote improvements of second-order motion-compensated spin-echo cardiac DTI.
