HARMONIZATION MITIGATES DIFFUSION MRI SCANNER EFFECTS IN INFANCY: INSIGHTS FROM THE HEALTHY BRAIN AND CHILD DEVELOPMENT (HBCD) STUDY.

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
The HEALthy Brain and Childhood Development (HBCD) Study is an ongoing longitudinal initiative to understand population-level brain maturation; however, large-scale studies must overcome site-related variance and preserve biologically relevant signal. In addition to diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging images, the HBCD dataset offers analysis-ready derivatives for scientists to conduct their analysis, including scalar diffusion tensor (DTI) metrics in a predetermined set of bundles. The purpose of this study is to characterize HBCD-specific site effects in diffusion MRI data, which have not been systematically reported. In this work, we investigate the sensitivity of HBCD bundle metrics to scanner model-related variance and address these variations with ComBat-GAM harmonization within the current HBCD data release 1.1 across six scanner models. Following ComBat-GAM, we observe zero statistically significant differences between the distributions from any scanner model following FDR correction and reduce Cohen's
