Assessment of sodium (
Article in Polish journal of radiology, 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
Purpose: The purpose of this work was to establish a database of tissue sodium concentration (TSC) in the normal brain of healthy volunteers. Tissue sodium concentration can be used as a sensitive marker of tissue viability in stroke or radiation therapy monitoring. Material and methods: Thirty-seven volunteers were scanned with a Results: The collected data were analysed in 2 different ways: volunteers were divided by sex and by age. No significant differences in TSC were found between sexes. In all comparisons there was a significant difference in TSC between younger and older volunteers. In healthy volunteers mean TSC were as follows: GM 33.21 ± 4.76 mmol/l, WM 28.41 ± 4.03 mmol/l and for CSF 41.3 ± 6.69 mmol/l. Conclusions: This preliminary work is a base for further work with sodium imaging in brain lesions. The entirety of the col-lected data will be useful in the future as a baseline brain TSC for comparison to values obtained from pathologies.
