A 60-channel high-density flexible receive array for pediatric abdominal MRI.
Article in Magnetic resonance in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
purposeConventional MRI coils offer suboptimal parallel imaging performance for young children. Our goal was to enhance imaging acceleration by dedicated, flexible high-density coil design for pediatric patients at 3T.
methodsWe design, construct, and evaluate a highly flexible small loop array. Key design notes include full-wave simulation and analysis of the dual-turn loop, miniature feedboard allocation at the loop center, and cable management. Phantom experiments and adult and pediatric volunteer case studies were conducted to evaluate the small loop array imaging performance compared to commercial reference coils.
resultsDual-turn loop configuration forms higher preamp decoupling impedance than the same size single-turn, supporting a flexible form factor that requires a wide range of critical overlap. Both phantom and in-vivo studies demonstrate superior parallel imaging performance or high spatial resolution imaging using the small loop, compared to commercial reference coils.
conclusionA dedicated high-density coil array with a minimum inter-component interference layout design allows a flexible form factor and higher imaging accelerations. Phantom and in-vivo volunteer case studies demonstrate promising results in improving efficiency for pediatric patients in routine clinical imaging procedures.
