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

This study investigates the radiofrequency (RF) induced heating in a pediatric whole-body voxel model with a high-density electroencephalogram (hd-EEG) net during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 3 Tesla. A total of three cases were studied: no net (NoNet), a resistive hd-EEG (NeoNet), and a copper (CuNet) net. The maximum values of specific absorption rate averaged over 10g-mass (10gSAR) in the head were calculated with the NeoNet was 12.51 W/kg and in the case of the NoNet was 12.40 W/kg. In contrast, the CuNet case was 17.04 W/Kg. Temperature simulations were conducted to determine the RF-induced heating without and with hd-EEG nets (NeoNet and CuNet) during an MRI scan using an age-corrected and thermoregulated perfusion for the child model. The results showed that the maximum temperature estimated in the child's head was 38.38 °C for the NoNet, 38.43 °C for the NeoNet, and 43.05 °C for the CuNet. In the case of NeoNet, the maximum temperature estimated in the child's head remained compliant with IEC 60601 for the MRI RF safety limit. However, the case of CuNet estimated to exceed the RF safety limit, which may require an appropriate cooling period or a hardware design to suppress the RF-induced heating.
