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

purposeThe inflow-based vascular-space-occupancy (iVASO) MRI was originally developed in a single-slice mode to measure arterial cerebral blood volume (CBVa). When vascular crushers are applied in iVASO, the signals can be sensitized predominantly to small pial arteries and arterioles. The purpose of this study is to perform a systematic optimization and evaluation of a 3D iVASO sequence on both 3 T and 7 T for the quantification of CBVa values in the human brain.

methodsThree sets of experiments were performed in three separate cohorts. (1) 3D iVASO MRI protocols were compared to single-slice iVASO, and the reproducibility of whole-brain 3D iVASO MRI was evaluated. (2) The effects from different vascular crushers in iVASO were assessed. (3) 3D iVASO MRI results were evaluated in arterial and venous blood vessels identified using ultrasmall-superparamagnetic-iron-oxides-enhanced MRI to validate its arterial origin.

results3D iVASO scans showed signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and CBVa measures consistent with single-slice iVASO with reasonable intrasubject reproducibility. Among the iVASO scans performed with different vascular crushers, the whole-brain 3D iVASO scan with a motion-sensitized-driven-equilibrium preparation with two binomial refocusing pulses and an effective TE of 50 ms showed the best suppression of macrovascular signals, with a relatively low specific absorption rate. When no vascular crusher was applied, the CBVa maps from 3D iVASO scans showed large CBVa values in arterial vessels but well-suppressed signals in venous vessels.

conclusionA whole-brain 3D iVASO MRI scan was optimized for CBVa measurement in the human brain. When only microvascular signals are desired, a motion-sensitized-driven-equilibrium-based vascular crusher with binomial refocusing pulses can be applied in 3D iVASO.
