Stochastic-offset-enhanced restricted slice excitation and 180° refocusing designs with spatially non-linear ΔB
Article in Magnetic resonance in medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeDeveloping a general framework with a novel stochastic offset strategy for the design of optimized RF pulses and time-varying spatially non-linear ΔB
methodsOur framework uses the decomposition property of the Bloch equations to enable joint design of RF-pulses and shim array fields for restricted slice excitation and refocusing with auto-differentiation optimization. Bloch simulations are performed independently on orthogonal basis vectors, Mx, My, and Mz, which enables designs for arbitrary initial magnetizations. Requirements for refocusing pulse designs are derived from the extended phase graph formalism obviating time-consuming sub-voxel isochromatic simulations to model the effects of crusher gradients. To refine resultant slice-profiles because of voxelwise optimization functions, we propose an algorithm that stochastically offsets spatial points at which loss is computed during optimization.
resultsWe first applied our proposed design framework to standard slice-selective excitation and refocusing pulses in the absence of non-linear ΔB
conclusionsOur proposed framework for optimizing RF pulse and time-varying spatially non-linear ΔB
