The CADA-MRIT: An MRI Inventory Tool for Evaluating Cerebral Lesions in CADASIL Across Cohorts.
Article in Neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesCerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is the most frequent genetic cerebrovascular disease. The clinical aspects of the disease in relation to the various types of lesions on MRI vary widely not only within families but also between different cohorts reported worldwide. Many limitations prevent comparison of imaging data obtained with different scanners and sequences in different patient cohorts. We aimed to develop and validate a simple tool to inventory quickly the key MRI features in CADASIL to compare imaging data across different populations.
methodsThe Inventory Tool (CADA-MRIT) was designed by consensus after repeated expert meetings. It consists of 11 imaging items to assess periventricular, deep, and superficial white matter hyperintensity (WMH), lacunes, cerebral microbleeds (CMB), centrum semiovale and basal ganglia dilated perivascular spaces (dPVS), superficial and deep atrophy, large infarcts, and macrobleeds. The reliability, clinical relevance, and time-effectiveness of CADA-MRIT were assessed using data from 3 independent patient cohorts.
resultsImaging data from 671 patients with CADASIL (440 from France, 119 from Germany, and 112 from Taiwan) were analyzed. Their mean age was 53.4 ± 12.2 years, 54.5% were women, 56.2% had stroke, and 31.1% had migraine with aura. Any lacune was present in at least 70% of individuals, whereas CMB occurred in 83% of patients from the Asian cohort and in only 35% of European patients. CADA-MRIT scores obtained for WMH, CMB, and dPVS were comparable regardless of the scanner or sequence used (weighted κ > 0.60). Intrarater and interrater agreements were from good to very good (weighted κ > 0.60). Global WMH and atrophy scores correlated strongly with accurate volumetric quantification of WMH or brain parenchymal fraction (Pearson DISCUSSION: The CADA-MRIT is an easy-to-use tool for analyzing and comparing the most frequent MRI lesions of CADASIL across different populations. This instrument is reliable. It can be used with different imaging sequences or scanners. It also provides clinically relevant scores in a very short time for completion.
