Article in IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering, 2025. 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
objectiveHighly-undersampled, dynamic MRI reconstruction, particularly in multi-coil scenarios, is a challenging inverse problem. Unrolled networks achieve state-of-the-art performance in MRI reconstruction but suffer from long training times and extensive GPU memory cost.
methodsIn this work, we propose a novel training strategy for IMplicit UNrolled NEtworks (IMUNNE) for highly-undersampled, multi-coil dynamic MRI reconstruction. It formulates the MRI reconstruction problem as an implicit fixed-point equation and leverages gradient approximation for backpropagation, enabling training of deep architectures with fixed memory cost. This study represents the first application of implicit network theory in the context of real-time cine MRI. The proposed method is evaluated using a prospectively undersampled, real-time cine dataset using radial k-space sampling, comprising balanced steady-state free precession (b-SSFP) readouts. Experiments include a hyperparameter search, head-to-head comparisons with a complex U-Net (CU-Net) and an alternating unrolled network (Alt-UN), and an analysis of robustness under noise perturbations; peak signal-to-noise ratio, structural similarity index, normalized root mean-square error, spatio-temporal entropic difference, and a blur metric were used.
resultsIMUNNE produced significantly and slightly better image quality compared to CU-Net and Alt-UN, respectively. Compared with Alt-UN, IMUNNE significantly reduced training and inference times, making it a promising approach for highly-accelerated, multi-coil real-time cine MRI reconstruction.
conclusionIMUNNE strategy successfully applies unrolled networks to image reconstruction of highly-accelerated, real-time radial cine MRI. SIGNIFICANCE: Implicit training enables rapid, high-quality, and cost-effective CMR exams by reducing training and inference times and lowering memory cost associated with advanced reconstruction methods.
