Cardiac DTI using short-axis PROPELLER: A feasibility study.
Article in Magnetic resonance in medicine, 2024. 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
purposeWe aimed to develop a free-breathing (FB) cardiac DTI (cDTI) method based on short-axis PROPELLER (SAP) and M2 motion compensated spin-echo EPI (SAP-M2-EPI) to mitigate geometric distortion and eliminate aliasing in acquired diffusion-weighted (DW) images, particularly in patients with a higher body mass index (BMI). THEORY AND
methodsThe study involved 10 healthy volunteers whose BMI values fell into specific categories: BMI <25 (4 volunteers), 25< BMI <28 (5 volunteers), and BMI >30 (1 volunteer). We compared DTI parameters, including fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), and helix angle transmurality (HAT), between SAP-M2-EPI and M2-ssEPI. To evaluate the performance of SAP-M2-EPI in reducing geometric distortions in the left ventricle (LV) compared to CINE and M2-ssEPI, we utilized the DICE similarity coefficient (DSC) and assessed misregistration area.
resultsIn all volunteers, SAP-M2-EPI yielded high-quality LV DWIs without aliasing, demonstrating significantly reduced geometric distortion (with an average DSC of 0.92 and average misregistration area of 90 mm
conclusionSAP-M2-EPI facilitates free-breathing cDTI of the entire LV, effectively eliminating aliasing and minimizing geometric distortion compared to M2-ssEPI. Furthermore, it preserves accurate quantification of myocardial microstructure.
