Practical microscopic neuroanatomy of the limbic system and basal forebrain identifiable on clinical 3T MRI.
Review in The neuroradiology journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Microscopic neuroanatomy of limbic system and basal forebrain on MRI is complex and is a terra incognita for many radiologists, clinicians, and neuroscientists. Interestingly, most of the important structures/at least anatomical regions containing these structures demonstrable on cadaveric and surgical dissections can be identified on clinical MRI, with 3T being much better than 1.5T. This article teaches the practical MRI identification of these structures which will greatly help in evaluating complex ailments like temporal lobe epilepsy, Alzheimer dementia, and other neuropsychiatric disorders. This knowledge will also aid in accurate reporting of tumor spread along the white matter fasciculi in the temporal stem/basal forebrain region. Limbic system includes the mesial temporal structures and their connections, piriform cortex including "area tempestas," and the septal area comprising of subcallosal area and paraterminal gyrus. Basal forebrain includes structures like substantia innominata with basal nucleus of Meynert, diagonal gyrus/diagonal band of Broca, and nucleus accumbens lying in between the anterior perforated substance inferiorly and the anterior commissure superiorly.
