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

backgroundCompromised structural integrity of the endothelium and higher microvessel density increase vascular permeability. We investigated whether vascular permeability measured in vivo by magnetic resonance imaging using the albumin-binding contrast agent, gadofosveset, is a surrogate marker of rupture-prone atherosclerotic plaque in a rabbit model. METHODS AND

resultsNew Zealand white rabbits (n=10) were rendered atherosclerotic by cholesterol-diet and endothelial denudation. Plaque rupture was triggered with Russell's viper venom and histamine. Animals were imaged pre-triggering, at 3 and 12 weeks, to quantify plaque area, vascular permeability, vasodilation, and stiffness and post-triggering to identify thrombus. Plaques identified on the pretrigger scans were classified as stable or rupture-prone based on the absence or presence of thrombus on the corresponding post-trigger magnetic resonance imaging, respectively. All rabbits had developed atherosclerosis, and 60% had ruptured plaques. Rupture-prone plaques had higher vessel wall relaxation rate (R

conclusionsT1 mapping using an albumin-binding contrast agent (gadofosveset) could quantify the changes in vascular permeability associated with atherosclerosis progression and rupture-prone plaques.
