Predicting White Matter Hyperintensity: Leveraging Portable MRI for Accessible Brain Health Screening.
Article in AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
background and purposePortable MRI (pMRI) has emerged as a cost-effective and accessible tool for the identification of white matter hyperintensities (WMH), an independent risk factor for stroke and dementia. Our objective was to confirm that pMRI can produce accurate WMH measurements and to develop and validate a risk model to predict WMH on pMRI for the purpose of identifying patients who may benefit from pMRI screening. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe development (
resultsThe final model, which included age, systolic blood pressure >140, atrial fibrillation, and tobacco use, achieved an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.83 (95% CI, 0.75-0.90) in the development cohort (
conclusionsThe WMH risk score demonstrated accurate performance and reproducibility across cohorts, supporting its potential as a screening tool for identifying patients at risk of moderate WMH burden. Appropriately targeted pMRI screening in high-risk individuals could allow providers and patients to proactively manage vascular risk factors and improve neurologic outcomes.
