Stand-alone MRI tool for semiautomatic volumetry of abdominal adipose compartments in patients with obesity.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Abdominal adipose tissue (AT) amounts are increasingly considered as potential biomarkers for a variety of diseases and clinical questions, for instance, in diabetology, oncology or cardiovascular medicine. Despite the emergence of automated deep-learning methods for tissue quantification, interactive (supervised) segmentation tools will typically be used for model training. In comparison with CT-based approaches, MRI segmentation tools are more complex and less common. This work aims to validate a novel MRI-based tissue volumetry against a reference method in patients with (pre-) obesity. The new tool (segfatMR) was developed under a Matlab-based, open-source software framework and combines fast automatic pre-segmentation followed by manual (expert) corrections where needed. Analyses were performed retrospectively on a subset of clinical research MRI datasets (1.5 T Achieva XR, Philips Healthcare) and involved the segmentation of datasets from 20 patients (10 women/men) aged 25.1-63.1 (mean 48.5) years with BMIs between 28.3 and 58.8 (mean 36.8) kg/m
