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

Aims: Fast Strain-encoding (fSENC) is a pulse sequence that enables the acquisition of cardiovascular magnetic resonance images within a few heartbeats and at free breathing to quantify myocardial strain, a deformation parameter of the heart muscle. Strain is gaining importance in heart failure diagnostics, but implementing fast strain-encoding into a routine magnetic resonance protocol has not been thoroughly explored from a practical viewpoint. This video manuscript aims to provide a simple guide for the acquisition of cardiovascular magnetic resonance exams in cardiac patients and to determine the scan-rescan reproducibility of segmental strain analyses. Methods and results: A volunteer was scanned for demonstration purposes on a 1.5T MRI Scanner ('Ingenia, Philips Healthcare, Best, The Netherlands'). The acquisition of cine steady-state free precession (SSFP) and fSENC sequences is demonstrated in a step-by-step fashion, accompanied by a multilingual video tutorial and an image guide. Scan-rescan reproducibility of acquisition-based strain values was excellent between subsequent scans for segmental longitudinal (SLS) [0.93 (0.91-0.95) and circumferential strain (SCS) [0.78 (0.73-0.82) to 0.84 (0.80-0.87)], and good to excellent between scans that were interrupted by a break for SLS [0.80 (0.74-0.85) to 0.84 (0.79-0.87)] and SCS [0.57 (0.46-0.66) to 0.65 (0.56-0.77)]. Conclusion: This multilingual video manuscript provides a practical guide to conducting cardiovascular magnetic resonance exams including SSFP and fSENC, useful for further quantitative analysis to grasp heart function on a global and regional basis.
