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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to compare the image quality of the 3D T2-weighted images accelerated using conventional method (CAI-SPACE) with the images accelerated using compressed sensing (CS-SPACE) in pediatric brain imaging.

methodsA total of 116 brain MRI (53 with CAI-SPACE and 63 with CS-SPACE) were obtained from children 16 years old or younger. Quantitative image quality was evaluated using the apparent signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR). The sequences were qualitatively evaluated for overall image quality, general artifact, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-related artifact, and grey-white matter differentiation. The two sequences were compared for the total and two age groups (< 24 months vs. ≥ 24 months).

resultsCompressed sensing application in 3D T2-weighted imaging resulted in 8.5% reduction in scanning time. Quantitative image quality analysis showed higher apparent SNR (median [Interquartile range]; 29 [25] vs. 23 [14], P = 0.005) and CNR (0.231 [0.121] vs. 0.165 [0.120], P = 0.027) with CS-SPACE compared to CAI-SPACE. Qualitative image quality analysis showed better image quality with CS-SPACE for general (P = 0.024) and CSF-related artifact (P < 0.001). CSF-related artifacts reduction was prominent in the older age group (≥ 24 months). Overall image quality (P = 0.162) and grey-white matter differentiation (P = 0.397) were comparable between CAI-SPACE and CS-SPACE.

conclusionCompressed sensing application in 3D T2-weighted images modestly reduced acquisition time and lowered CSF-related artifact compared to conventional images of the pediatric brain.
