MBV-Pipe: A One-Stop Toolbox for Assessing Mouse Brain Morphological Changes for Cross-Scale Studies.
Article in Neuroinformatics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Mouse models are crucial for neuroscience research, yet discrepancies arise between macro- and meso-scales due to sample preparation altering brain morphology. The absence of an accessible toolbox for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data processing presents a challenge for assessing morphological changes in the mouse brain. To address this, we developed the MBV-Pipe (Mouse Brain Volumetric Statistics-Pipeline) toolbox, integrating the methods of Diffeomorphic Anatomical Registration Through Exponentiated Lie Algebra (DARTEL)-Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) and Tract-Based Spatial Statistics (TBSS) to evaluate brain tissue volume and white matter integrity. To validate the reliability of MBV-Pipe, brain MRI data from seven mice at three time points (in vivo, post-perfusion, and post-fixation) were acquired using a 9.4T ultra-high MRI system. Employing the MBV-Pipe toolbox, we discerned substantial volumetric changes in the mouse brain following perfusion relative to the in vivo condition, with the fixation process inducing only negligible variations. Importantly, the white matter integrity was found to be largely stable throughout the sample preparation procedures. The MBV-Pipe source code is publicly available and includes a user-friendly GUI for facilitating quality control and experimental protocol optimization, which holds promise for advancing mouse brain research in the future.
