High-resolution, respiratory-resolved coronary MRA using a Phyllotaxis-reordered variable-density 3D cones trajectory.
Article in Magnetic resonance imaging, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeTo develop a respiratory-resolved motion-compensation method for free-breathing, high-resolution coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) using a 3D cones trajectory.
methodsTo achieve respiratory-resolved 0.98 mm resolution images in a clinically relevant scan time, we undersample the imaging data with a variable-density 3D cones trajectory. For retrospective motion compensation, translational estimates from 3D image-based navigators (3D iNAVs) are used to bin the imaging data into four phases from end-expiration to end-inspiration. To ensure pseudo-random undersampling within each respiratory phase, we devise a phyllotaxis readout ordering scheme mindful of eddy current artifacts in steady state free precession imaging. Following binning, residual 3D translational motion within each phase is computed using the 3D iNAVs and corrected for in the imaging data. The noise-like aliasing characteristic of the combined phyllotaxis and cones sampling pattern is leveraged in a compressed sensing reconstruction with spatial and temporal regularization to reduce aliasing in each of the respiratory phases.
resultsIn initial studies of six subjects, respiratory motion compensation using the proposed method yields improved image quality compared to non-respiratory-resolved approaches with no motion correction and with 3D translational correction. Qualitative assessment by two cardiologists and quantitative evaluation with the image edge profile acutance metric indicate the superior sharpness of coronary segments reconstructed with the proposed method (P < 0.01).
conclusionWe have demonstrated a new method for free-breathing, high-resolution CMRA based on a variable-density 3D cones trajectory with modified phyllotaxis ordering and respiratory-resolved motion compensation with 3D iNAVs.
