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

After the fabrication of magnetic resonance superconducting magnets, the magnetic field inhomogeneity needs to be accurately measured for subsequent shimming. However, conventional measurement methods are susceptible to magnetic fields, have poor compatibility, and are difficult to adapt to various types of magnets. This paper proposes a new field measuring system based on a three-axis movable platform. The system utilizes non-magnetic materials and an innovative hand-wheel lifting design that can be adapted to various aperture magnets, thus obviating the necessity for electrically driven equipment and addressing safety concerns in strong magnetic fields. In addition, the measurement system offers high accuracy up to 1 mm and a wide measurable range. The fields of 3 T and 7 T magnets were mapped using the designed system with diameter of spherical volume (DSV) of 160 mm and 130 mm, respectively. Experimental results demonstrate that the magnetic field measurement system has strong compatibility and can accurately map the magnetic field at arbitrary positions, which is critical for shimming studies.
