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
objectiveDiffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a promising technique for ischemic stroke evaluation; however, acquisition time is longer than DWI. Simultaneous multislice (SMS) imaging acquires multiple slices together and reduces scan time. This study compared conventional and SMS DTI for ischemic stroke workup.
methodsFollowing IRB approval, the departmental stroke protocol was supplemented with SMS DTI on a clinical 1.5T MRI. Cases suspicious for ischemic stroke outside the treatment window were included. Standard DTI (STD-DTI, 20-direction,
results41 patients were evaluated. SMS-2-DTI decreased DTI time by 132.17 ± 15.33 s, a 45% reduction. SMS-2-DTI reduced image quality (STD-DTI 4.7 ± 0.5
conclusionsThis study supports using SMS to accelerate DTI for ischemic stroke workup at 1.5T in the non-hyper-acute setting. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: This study highlights the feasibility of accelerated multislice DTI for faster diagnostic DTI-trace images capable of ischemic stroke detection.
