The relationship between parameters measured using intravoxel incoherent motion and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI in patients with breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy: a longitudinal cohort study.

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
Purpose: The primary aim of this study was to explore whether intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) can offer a contrast-agent-free alternative to dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-MRI for measuring breast tumor perfusion. The secondary aim was to investigate the relationship between tissue diffusion measures from DWI and DCE-MRI measures of the tissue interstitial and extracellular volume fractions. Materials and methods: A total of 108 paired DWI and DCE-MRI scans were acquired at 1.5 T from 40 patients with primary breast cancer (median age: 44.5 years) before and during neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). DWI parameters included apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), tissue diffusion (D Results: No statistically significant between-subject or within-subject correlation was found between the perfusion parameters estimated by IVIM and DCE-MRI (f versus v Conclusion: No correlations were observed between the perfusion parameters estimated by IVIM and DCE-MRI. This may be attributed to imprecise estimates of fxD
