Inter-rater reliability of atherosclerotic plaque enhancement on 7 T vessel wall MRI: Comparison with quantitative analysis.
Article in Interventional neuroradiology : journal of peritherapeutic neuroradiology, surgical procedures and related neurosciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
ObjectiveIntracranial plaque enhancement (IPE) is a potential biomarker of plaque vulnerability but lacks a standardized definition. While subjective assessment may be prone to observer variability, a voxel-based quantification method can detect subtle signal intensity (SI) changes. This study aimed to compare the inter-rater reliability of subjective IPE evaluation with that of a voxel-based quantification method.MethodsPatients with stroke due to intracranial atherosclerosis were prospectively imaged using 7 T vessel wall magnetic resonance imaging. Two adjudicators independently assessed IPE, with discrepancies resolved by a third, experienced neuroradiologist. IPE distribution was quantified using a semiautomated method based on SI measurements from post-contrast T1-weighted images. The mean enhancement ratio was calculated for each plaque to assess gadolinium enhancement. Inter-rater reproducibility and the concordance between subjective and objective assessments were evaluated. Regression analysis was performed to identify plaque morphological features that influenced the reliability of subjective IPE adjudication compared to the objective method.ResultsWe analyzed 75 plaques from 41 patients. Inter-rater agreement for IPE adjudication was poor (
