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

Background: Our recent report showed that 1.5-T pulsed arterial spin labeling (ASL) magnetic resonance (MR) perfusion imaging (1.5-T Pulsed ASL [PASL]), which is widely available in the field of neuroemergency, is useful for detecting ictal hyperperfusion. However, the visualization of intravascular ASL signals, namely, arterial transit artifact (ATA), is more remarkable than that of 3-T pseudocontinuous ASL and is easily confused with focal hyperperfusion. To eliminate ATA and enhance the detectability of (peri) ictal hyperperfusion, we developed the subtraction of ictal-interictal 1.5-T PASL images co-registered to conventional MR images (SIACOM). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the SIACOM findings in four patients who underwent ASL during both (peri) ictal and interictal states and examined the detectability for (peri) ictal hyperperfusion. Results: In all patients, the ATA of the major arteries was almost eliminated from the subtraction image of the ictal-interictal ASL. In patients 1 and 2 with focal epilepsy, SIACOM revealed a tight anatomical relationship between the epileptogenic lesion and the hyperperfusion area compared with the original ASL image. In patient 3 with situation-related seizures, SIACOM detected minute hyperperfusion at the site coinciding with the abnormal electroencephalogram area. SIACOM of patient 4 with generalized epilepsy diagnosed ATA of the right middle cerebral artery, which was initially thought to be focal hyperperfusion on the original ASL image. Conclusion: Although it is necessary to examine several patients, SIACOM can eliminate most of the depiction of ATA and clearly demonstrate the pathophysiology of each epileptic seizure.
