The effect of cartilage dehydration and rehydration on quantitative ultrashort echo time biomarkers.
Article in Quantitative imaging in medicine and surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: The effect of dehydration of Methods: A total of 37 cartilage samples were harvested from patients (n=5) who underwent total knee replacement. Fresh cartilage samples were exposed to air to dehydrate for 2 hours after baseline magnetic resonance (MR) scanning, then randomly divided into two groups: one soaking in native synovial fluid (n=17) and the other in normal saline (n=20) to rehydrate for 4 hours. UTE-based biomarkers [T Results: Dehydrating in air for 2 hours resulted in significant weight loss (P=0.000). T Conclusions: Cartilage dehydration resulted in significant changes in UTE biomarkers. Rehydrating with synovial fluid or normal saline had non-significant effect on all the evaluated UTE biomarkers except T
