Validation of Dynamic 3D MRI for Urodynamics Assessment Using an Anatomically Realistic In Vitro Model of the Bladder.
Article in Journal of biomechanical engineering, 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
Lowery urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) affect a large majority of the aging population. 3D Dynamic MRI shows promise as a noninvasive diagnostic tool that can assess bladder anatomy and function (urodynamics) while overcoming challenges associated with current urodynamic assessment methods. However, validation of this technique remains an unmet need. In this study, an anatomically realistic, bladder-mimicking in vitro flow model was created and used to systematically benchmark 3D dynamic MRI performance using a highly controllable syringe pump. Time-resolved volumes of the synthetic bladder model were obtained during simulated filling and voiding events and used to calculate volumetric flowrate. During MRI acquisitions, pressure during each event was recorded and used to create PV loops for work assessment. Error between control and MRI-derived volume for voiding and filling events exhibited 3.36% and 4.66% differences, respectively. A slight increase in average error was observed for MRI-derived flowrate when compared to the control flowrate (4.90% and 7.67% for voiding and filling, respectively). Overall, average error in segmented volumes increased with decreasing volume flowrate. Pressure drops were observed during voiding. Pressure increased during filling. Enhanced validation of novel 3D MRI urodynamics is achieved by using high-resolution PIV for visualizing and quantifying velocity inside the bladder model, which is not currently possible with 3D Dynamic MRI.
