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

Determining blood flow in major cerebral arteries is crucial for understanding cerebrovascular diseases. This study focused on comparing flow volumes derived from the signal intensity gradient (SIG) of Time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography (TOF-MRA), referred to as SIG volume, and two-dimensional phase-contrast MR (PC-MR) and assessing their correlation in both experimental and human studies. The SIG volume of TOF-MRA could be calculated based on the concept of SIG as velocity gradient correspondingly. This research encompassed an experimental study as well as a prospective cross-sectional study involving human participants. Flow volumes were measured in four varying-sized tubes using PC-MR and TOF-MRA in the experimental study. The internal carotid and vertebral arteries were examined in relatively healthy subjects and the data were prospectively collected. Pearson's correlation coefficients and coefficients of determination (R²) were calculated, and Bland-Altman plots were used to assess the agreement between the two methods. In the tubal experiments (n = 80), the correlation coefficient of flow volumes measured by two modalities was 0.98, with an R
