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

backgroundThe development of materials with tailored signal intensity in MR imaging is critically important both for the reduction of signal from non-tissue hardware, as well as for the construction of tissue-mimicking phantoms. Silicone-based phantoms are becoming more popular due to their structural stability, stretchability, longer shelf life, and ease of handling, as well as for their application in dynamic imaging of physiology in motion. Moreover, silicone can be also used for the design of stretchable receive radio-frequency (RF) coils. PURPOSE: Fabrication of materials with tailored signal intensity for MRI requires knowledge of precise T MATERIALS AND

methodsTen samples of pure and Gd-doped Ecoflex silicone polymer samples were prepared with various Gd volume ratios ranging from 1:5000 to 1:10, and studied using 1.5 T and 3 T clinical and 7 T preclinical scanners. T

resultsWith the addition of a Gd-based contrast agent, it is possible to significantly change T

conclusionsGd-based contrast agents can be effectively used to create Ecoflex silicone polymer-based phantoms with tailored T
