Ultra-High Contrast MRI: The Whiteout Sign Shown with Divided Subtracted Inversion Recovery (dSIR) Sequences in Post-Insult Leukoencephalopathy Syndromes (PILS).
Review in Tomography (Ann Arbor, Mich.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Ultra-high contrast (UHC) MRI describes forms of MRI in which little or no contrast is seen on conventional MRI images but very high contrast is seen with UHC techniques. One of these techniques uses the divided subtracted inversion recovery (dSIR) sequence, which, in modelling studies, can produce ten times the contrast of conventional inversion recovery (IR) sequences. When used in cases of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), the dSIR sequence frequently shows extensive abnormalities in white matter that appears normal when imaged with conventional T
