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

The parasagittal dura (PSD) is a thin channel along the sagittal sinus vein at the brain's upper convexities. Previous studies have shown that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flows directly into the PSD, with PSD dimensions and tracer clearance rates associated with aging and brain disorders. Since slow lymphatic drainage is sensitive to water diffusion, PSD circulation may be evaluated using diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). However, traditional echo-planar DWI (EP-DWI) suffers from low resolution and image distortion, limiting its application to PSD assessment. This study employed high-resolution Multiplexed Sensitivity Encoding (MUSE) DWI and Periodically Rotated Overlapping Parallel Lines with Enhanced Reconstruction (PROPELLER) DWI to investigate PSD water diffusion. These advanced techniques reduce image distortion while enhancing spatial resolution. Our results demonstrated that PSD structures are clearly visible on high-resolution DWI and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps, correlating with PSD locations identified on T2 FLAIR imaging. In addition, mean ADC values of PSD (1843.1-2062.2 × 10
