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

Bone is invisible with conventional MRI sequences. It is highly desirable to develop novel MRI sequences to image bone, providing a radiation-free modality for skeletal imaging. We compared the morphological and quantitative strength of three-dimensional (3D) ultrashort echo time (UTE), zero echo time (ZTE), and short TR adiabatic inversion recovery UTE (STAIR-UTE) MRI techniques for bone imaging in various skeletal anatomical regions, including the forearm, wrist, lower leg, upper leg, and skull. Five healthy volunteers (four male and one female) were subject to four MRI sequences, including 3D UTE with 2° and 7° flip angles (FAs), 3D ZTE with 2° FA, and 3D STAIR-UTE with 14° FA. Regions of interest (ROIs) were drawn in cortical bone, marrow cavity, and muscle to measure their signal intensities. An artifact-free ROI was also placed in the image background to measure the standard deviation (SD) of noise. The signal-to-noise ratio of bone (SNR
