Magnetic resonance imaging applications to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis beyond the central nervous system.
Review in Frontiers in neurology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Traditionally, in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other motor neuron disorders, the diagnostic and research focus in the domain of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been targeted on the brain and spinal cord. Nevertheless, structures outside the central nervous system (CNS) are core structures of the pathological processes and are also assessible by imaging approaches. Advanced imaging of structures like bodyfat and muscles can considerably contribute to the pathophysiological understanding and disease monitoring of ALS. The multiparametric combination of MRI approaches that capture these changes could be very helpful in future studies, especially when machine learning algorithms are used. This review summarizes the current state of the art and the role of imaging beyond the CNS in ALS, examining its diagnostic and monitoring potential and how it might ultimately lead to improved management strategies for patients.
