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

purposeTo develop a whole-heart, free-breathing, non-electrocardiograph (ECG)-gated, cardiac-phase-resolved myocardial perfusion MRI framework (CRIMP; Continuous Radial Interleaved simultaneous Multi-slice acquisitions at sPoiled steady-state) and test its quantification feasibility.

methodsCRIMP used interleaved radial simultaneous multi-slice (SMS) slice groups to cover the whole heart in 9 or 12 short-axis slices. The sequence continuously acquired data without magnetization preparation, ECG gating or breath-holding, and captured multiple cardiac phases. Images were reconstructed by a motion-compensated patch-based locally low-rank reconstruction. Bloch simulations were performed to study the signal-to-noise ratio/contrast-to-noise ratio (SNR/CNR) for CRIMP and to study the steady-state signal under motion. Seven patients were scanned with CRIMP at stress and rest to develop the sequence. One human and two dogs were scanned at rest with a dual-bolus method to test the quantification feasibility of CRIMP. The dual-bolus scans were performed using both CRIMP and an ungated radial SMS saturation recovery (SMS-SR) sequence with injection dose = 0.075 mmol/kg to compare the sequences in terms of SNR, cardiac phase resolution and quantitative myocardial blood flow (MBF).

resultsPerfusion images with multiple cardiac phases in all image slices with a temporal resolution of 72 ms/frame were obtained. Simulations and in-vivo acquisitions showed CRIMP kept the inner slices in steady-state regardless of motion. CRIMP outperformed SMS-SR in slice coverage (9 over 6), SNR (mean 20% improvement), and provided cardiac phase resolution. CRIMP and SMS-SR sequences provided comparable MBF values (rest systolic CRIMP = 0.58 ± 0.07, SMS-SR = 0.61 ± 0.16).

conclusionCRIMP allows for whole-heart, cardiac-phase-resolved myocardial perfusion images without ECG-gating or breath-holding. The sequence can provide MBF if an accurate arterial input function is obtained separately.
