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

This study aimed to investigate the cause of susceptibility underestimation in body quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) and propose a water/fat separate reconstruction to address this issue. A numerical simulation was conducted using conventional QSM with/without body masking. The conventional method with body masking underestimated the susceptibility across all regions, whereas the method without body masking estimated an equivalent value to the ground truth. Additional numerical simulations and human experiments were conducted to compare the water/fat separate reconstruction, which separately reconstructs water and fat susceptibility maps based on the water/fat separation, with conventional QSM with body masking. The proposed method improved susceptibility estimation specifically in only the water tissue. The results of the human experiments were consistent with those of the numerical simulations. The lack of phase information outside the body contributed to susceptibility underestimation in conventional QSM. The developed method addressed susceptibility underestimation only in water tissue in body QSM.
