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

Purpose: To determine the efficacy of 1.5 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnosis of anomalies of the fetal great arteries with comparison to fetal ultrasound, and to compare image quality between 1.5 T and 3.0 T MRI in fetal imaging of the great arteries. Methods: We compared the results of postnatal exam or surgery and evaluated the application value of prenatal 1.5 T MRI in the assessment of fetal great-vessel anomalies. To further determine the diagnostic potential of 1.5 T MRI, 23 pregnant women with suspected fetal cardiovascular abnormalities who had undergone ultrasound and 3.0 T MRI were enrolled and compared, respectively. Results: Prenatal MRI was superior to ultrasound in demonstrating aortic arch and branch abnormalities (sensitivity, 92.86% vs. 83.33%; specificity, 66.67% vs. 20%). The mean quality ratings for fetal MRI at 1.5 T was higher than 3.0 T ( Conclusions: 1.5 T MRI can achieve an overall assessment of fetal great-vessel anomalies, especially aortic arch and branch abnormalities. Therefore, 1.5 T MRI can be considered a supplementary imaging modality for the prenatal assessment of extracardiac great vessels malformations.
