When CEST meets diffusion: Multi-echo diffusion-encoded CEST (dCEST) MRI to measure intracellular and extracellular CEST signal distributions.
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
purposeTo develop a multi-echo, diffusion-encoded chemical exchange saturation transfer (dCEST) imaging technique for estimating the intracellular and extracellular/intravascular contributions to the conventional CEST signal.
methodsA dCEST pulse sequence was developed to quantify the signal fractions, transverse relaxation times (T
resultsThe multi-echo diffusion results showed that the intracellular water fractions were significantly higher than the extracellular water fractions, whereas the intracellular T
conclusionsThe dCEST imaging technique provides valuable insight into the source of signals in conventional CEST MRI, offering potential utility for clinical applications.
