Pseudo-Resting-State Functional MRI Derived from Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast Perfusion MRI Can Predict Cognitive Impairment in Glioma.
Article in AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 and purposeResting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) can be used to estimate functional connectivity (FC) between different brain regions, which may be of value for identifying cognitive impairment in patients with brain tumors. Unfortunately, neither rs-fMRI nor neurocognitive assessments are routinely assessed clinically, mostly due to limitations in examination time and cost. Since DSC perfusion MRI is often used clinically to assess tumor vascularity and similarly uses a gradient-echo-EPI sequence for T2*-sensitivity, we theorized a "pseudo-rs-fMRI" signal could be derived from DSC perfusion to simultaneously quantify FC and perfusion metrics, and these metrics can be used to estimate cognitive impairment in patients with brain tumors. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwenty-four consecutive patients with gliomas were enrolled in a prospective study that included DSC perfusion MRI, resting-sate functional MRI (rs-fMRI), and neurocognitive assessment. Voxelwise modeling of contrast bolus dynamics during DSC acquisition was performed and then subtracted from the original signal to generate a residual "pseudo-rs-fMRI" signal. Following the preprocessing of pseudo-rs-fMRI, full rs-fMRI, and a truncated version of the full rs-fMRI (first 100 timepoints) data, the default mode, motor, and language network maps were generated with atlas-based ROIs, Dice scores were calculated for the resting-state network maps from pseudo-rs-fMRI and truncated rs-fMRI using the full rs-fMRI maps as reference. Seed-to-voxel and ROI-to-ROI analyses were performed to assess FC differences between cognitively impaired and nonimpaired patients.
resultsDice scores for the group-level and patient-level (mean±SD) default mode, motor, and language network maps using pseudo-rs-fMRI were 0.905/0.689 ± 0.118 (group/patient), 0.973/0.730 ± 0.124, and 0.935/0.665 ± 0.142, respectively. There was no significant difference in Dice scores between pseudo-rs-fMRI and the truncated rs-fMRI default mode (
conclusionsDSC perfusion MRI-derived pseudo-rs-fMRI data can be used to perform typical rs-fMRI FC analyses that may identify cognitive decline in patients with brain tumors while still simultaneously performing perfusion analyses.
