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

purposeCardiac magnetic resonance fingerprinting (cMRF) is a powerful quantitative imaging technique that provides multi-parametric diagnostic information. Here, we introduce an open-source framework for cardiac MRF including open-source pulse sequences, image reconstruction, and parameter estimation tools that are needed for the processing of the data.

methodsA 2D cMRF sequence with a variable-density spiral readout is implemented using the open-source and vendor-agnostic sequence format Pulseq. Cardiac triggering is used to synchronize acquisition with the rest period of the heart.

resultsThe error of

conclusionThe proposed open-source cMRF implementation enables accurate parameter estimation across multiple different scanners. Sequence files, image reconstruction, and parameter estimation scripts are available for reproducible quantitative MRI.
