Whole-brain meso-vein imaging in living humans using fast 7-T MRI.
Article in Science advances, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Noninvasive measurement of the human brain's angioarchitecture is essential for understanding functional neuroimaging signals, diagnosing cerebrovascular diseases, and tracking neurodegeneration. Ultrahigh-field MRI now enables mesoscopic (<0.5 millimeters) imaging, revealing vascular details previously inaccessible in vivo. Yet current approaches face two barriers: Scan times often exceed 40 minutes, and the conventional visualization methods remain limited for navigating the vasculature. Here, we present a fast whole-brain MRI protocol that resolves the venous network at 0.35 millimeters in under 7 minutes. We also introduce processing and visualization techniques that distinguish vessel types and more intuitively navigate the vasculature. These advances allow in vivo reproduction of the seminal vasculature images of Henri M. Duvernoy and provide whole-brain intracortical meso-vein maps in humans. Our methods lay the groundwork for detailed examination of vascular organization across individuals, brain regions, and cortical layers. More generally, these methods make mesoscopic imaging of angioarchitecture viable for broad neuroscientific and clinical applications.
