Phase-resolved MRI for measurement of pulmonary perfusion and ventilation defects in comparison with dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and

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
introductionThis meta-analysis aims to evaluate the agreement and correlation between phase-resolved functional lung MRI (PREFUL MRI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI in evaluating perfusion defect percentage (QDP), as well as the agreement between PREFUL MRI and
methodA systematic search was conducted in the Medline, Embase and Cochrane Library databases to identify relevant studies comparing QDP and VDP measured by DCE MRI and
resultsA total of 399 subjects from 10 studies were enrolled. The mean difference and LOA were -2.31% (-8.01% to 3.40%) for QDP and 0.34% (-4.94% to 5.62%) for VDP. The pooled correlations (95% CI) were 0.65 (0.55 to 0.73) for QDP and 0.72 (0.61 to 0.80) for VDP. Furthermore, both QDP and VDP showed a negative correlation with forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV
conclusionsPREFUL MRI is a promising imaging for the assessment of lung function, as it demonstrates satisfactory deviations and LOA when compared with DEC MRI and PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42023430847.
