4D Flow MRI in the portal venous system: imaging and analysis methods, and clinical applications.
Review in La Radiologia medica, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers.
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
Thus far, ultrasound, CT, and 2D cine phase-contrast MRI has been adopted to evaluate blood flow and vascular morphology in the portal venous system; however, all these techniques have some shortcomings, such as limited field of view and difficulty in accurately evaluating blood flow. A new imaging technique, namely 3D cine phase-contrast (4D Flow) MRI, can acquire blood flow data of the entire abdomen at once and in a time-resolved manner, allowing visual, quantitative, and comprehensive assessment of blood flow in the portal venous system. In addition, a retrospective blood flow analysis, i.e., "retrospective flowmetry," is possible. Although the development of 4D Flow MRI for the portal system has been delayed compared to that for the arterial system owing to the lower flow velocity of the portal venous system and the presence of respiratory artifacts, several useful reports have recently been published as the technology has advanced. In the first part of this narrative review article, technical considerations of image acquisition and analysis methods of 4D Flow MRI for the portal venous system and the validations of their results are described. In the second part, the current clinical application of 4D Flow MRI for the portal venous system is reviewed.
