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

purposeDue to the inherently low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) domain for

methodsThe proposed GRE sequence (slice selective RF pulse, slice thickness 100 mm, 16 averages, 64 × 64 matrix size, 400 × 400 mm FOV, 60 Hz/px BW, 50° FA, 80 ms TR, 14 ms TE, cartesian acquisition trajectory) was comprehensively evaluated on four clinical 3 T systems, across three sites and two vendors. Thirteen coils were evaluated, including multiple surface coils (transmit/receive and receive only) and volume coils for different body parts. The GRE sequence was compared with a previously described chemical shift imaging (CSI) technique for QC of

resultsA Passing-Bablok regression and a Spearman correlation of 0.78 demonstrated good agreement of the two methods. The GRE approach offers reduced acquisition time and simplified analysis with SNR trends demonstrating reproducible coil performance across all sites and vendors.

conclusionThis standardization aims to strengthen multi-center trials by ensuring data comparability and reliability, advancing the clinical translation of
