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

purposeApplications of DENSE to measure cardiac driven brain tissue pulsations are highly sensitive to bulk patient motion due to the sub-millimeter displacement encoding required, limiting its accuracy, reproducibility, and use in pediatric and aging populations. This study aims to assess the impact of induced bulk motion on DENSE scans and to what extent these motion effects can be mitigated with existing and newly proposed methods.

methodsParticipants (N = 10) underwent test-retest 2D DENSE scans at three slice locations with and without induced motion using a 3.0 T system. Brain displacement fields were calculated using pipelines without and with motion correction based on polynomial fitting to an outer ring of brain tissue. Subsequently, voxel-wise comparisons were made between scans and pipelines to evaluate scan repeatability and measure biases in displacement measures.

resultsIn comparing scans with and without induced motion, motion significantly impacted displacement measures, resulting in intensity variations and phase wrap artifacts, as well as increased the mean peak-to-peak displacements. Motion-correction removed the intensity variations and phase wrap observed in phase images, and reduced variations between scans taken with and without induced motion (

conclusionMotion correction significantly improved the correspondence of DENSE measures acquired during induced motion and improved test-retest reproducibility, even in the absence of induced motion.
