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
backgroundCardiac real-time MRI (RT-MRI) in combination with MR-compatible spirometry (MRcS) offers unique opportunities to study heart-lung interactions. In contrast to other techniques that monitor respiration during MRI, MRcS provides quantitative respiratory data. Though MRcS is well tolerated, shortening of the scanning time with MRcS would be desirable, especially in young and sick patients. PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to predict airflow and lung volume based on RT-MR images after a short learning phase of combined RT-MRI and MRcS to provide respiratory data for subsequent short axis stack-based volumetries.
methodsCardiac RT-MRI (1.5 T; short axis; 30 frames/s) was acquired during free breathing in combination with MRcS in adult healthy subjects (n = 10). MR images with MRcS were recorded during a learning phase to collect training data. The iterative Lucas-Kanade method was applied to estimate optical flow from the captured MR images. A ridge regression model was fitted to predict airflow and thus also the lung volume from the estimated optical flow. Hyperparameters were estimated using leave-one-out cross validation and the performance was assessed on a held-out test dataset. Different durations and compositions of the learning phase were investigated to develop the most efficient measurement protocol. Coefficient of determination (R
resultsMRI combined with MRcS can train a machine learning algorithm to provide excellent predictive quantitative respiratory volume and flow for the remaining study. The optimal trade-off between predictive power and time necessary for training was reached with a shortened cardiac volumetry protocol covering only about two breaths per slice and every second slice (airflow: mean R
conclusionMachine-learning-based prediction of respiratory flow and lung volume from cardiac RT-MR images after a short training phase with MRcS is feasible and can help to shorten the time with MRcS while providing accurate respiratory data during RT-MRI.
