1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

For 4D Flow MRI of mean and turbulent flow a compromise between spatiotemporal undersampling and velocity encodings needs to be found. Assuming a fixed scan time budget, the impact of trading off spatiotemporal undersampling versus velocity encodings on quantification of velocity and turbulence for aortic 4D Flow MRI was investigated. For this purpose, patient-specific mean and turbulent aortic flow data were generated using computational fluid dynamics which were embedded into the patient-specific background image data to generate synthetic MRI data with corresponding ground truth flow. Cardiac and respiratory motion were included. Using the synthetic MRI data as input, 4D Flow MRI was subsequently simulated with undersampling along pseudo-spiral Golden angle Cartesian trajectories for various velocity encoding schemes. Data were reconstructed using a locally low rank approach to obtain mean and turbulent flow fields to be compared to ground truth. Results show that, for a 15-min scan, velocity magnitudes can be reconstructed with good accuracy relatively independent of the velocity encoding scheme (
