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

purposeOxygen-enhanced MRI (OE-MRI) enables noninvasive assessment of tissue oxygenation by exploiting the paramagnetic effect of molecular oxygen on longitudinal relaxation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether whole-body oxygen-enhanced MRI (OE-MRI) can be performed under hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) conditions and to assess its utility for detecting oxygenation changes in a small-animal tumor model using a clinical 3 T scanner.

methodsA fully MRI-compatible HBO chamber was built for imaging mice and installed in a 3 T clinical scanner. SCC7-tumor-bearing C3H mice underwent whole-body OE-MRI with variable flip-angle T

resultsHigh-quality OE-MRI was obtained under all hyperbaric conditions. Normal tissues (brain, heart) showed uniform, pressure-dependent increases in ΔR

conclusionWhole-body pre-clinical OE-MRI on a clinical 3 T system is feasible and sensitive under hyperbaric oxygenation, capturing both tissue-level pressure effects and heterogeneous tumor oxygen responses. This non-invasive HBO-OE-MRI platform provides a valuable pre-clinical tool for assessing oxygen delivery and identifying oxygen-refractory tumor zones, supporting oxygen-guided therapeutic strategies.
