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

Purpose To evaluate a noncontrast electrocardiographically triggered, navigator-gated, three-dimensional, balanced steady-state free precession MR angiography (MRA) research sequence on a wide-bore 0.55-T commercial low-field-strength system, by comparing image quality and aortic dimension measurements against images obtained at 1.5 T. Materials and Methods Ten healthy volunteers (28.8 years ± 9.0 [SD]; four male) and 10 participants being evaluated for dilated thoracic aorta (53.6 years ± 10.7; six male) underwent noncontrast MRA scans at both 1.5 T and 0.55 T. Overall image quality, intrarater and interrater agreement in aortic dimensions, and diagnostic accuracy were evaluated between field strengths for both groups of individuals using Wilcoxon test, intraclass correlation coefficient, and Bland-Altman plots. Results Median image quality scores remained comparable between volunteers and participants across field strengths. Blood signal variability was greater at the ascending aorta at 1.5 T for volunteers (
