Area of Research Referenced in (Number) Papers	UMG/External	Participant N	Relevant Publications	Main Findings (Verbal Quotations!)
Neuro, association study (237)	UMG	2367	Habes M 2016 [14]	“White matter hyperintensities also contribute independently to brain atrophy patterns in regions related to Alzheimer’s disease dementia,”
MR imaging in Population based studies, methodology (127)	UMG	194	Hegenscheid K 2009 [4]	“a large prospective, population-based study using wb-MRI is feasible and that the results of image analysis are reproducible.”
Abdomen, natural history (120)	UMG	2333	Kromrey ML 2018 [15]	“The prevalence of pancreatic cysts in the general population is unexpectedly high, and their number and size increase with age. Overall, no pancreatic cancer was observed in this collective during a 5-year follow-up.”
MR imaging in Population based studies, methodology (107)	UMG	2500	Hegenscheid K 2013 [5]	“Potentially relevant incidental findings are very common in wb-MRI research but the nature of these findings remains unclear in most cases. This requires dedicated management to protect subjects’ welfare and research integrity.”
Abdomen, epidemiology (83)	UMG	1367	Kühn JP 2015 [16]	“The presence of pancreatic fat is not related to prediabetes or diabetes, which suggests that it has little clinical relevance for an individual’s glycemic status.”
Neuro, association study (74)	UMG	2344	Janowitz D 2015 [17]	“VBM (“voxel-based morphometry”) in SHIP-2 and TREND indicated distinct associations of obesity-related factors (waist circumference and BMI) with loss of gray matter volume in mediofrontal areas.”
Neuro, association study (65)	UMG	2589	Grabe HJ 2014 [18]	“Alexiythymia was associated with areas represent(ing) language and semantic processing which might be involved in the cognitive processing of emotions and the conscious identification of feelings.”
MR imaging in Population based studies, methodology (65)	UMG	471	Schmidt CO 2013 [8]	“Despite the high satisfaction of most participants, there were numerous adverse consequences concerning the communication of incidental findings and false expectations about the likely potential benefits of whole-body-MRI.”
Abdomen, epidemiology (64)	UMG	2561	Kühn JP 2017 [19]	“In a white German population, the prevalence of fatty liver diseases and liver iron overload is 42.2% (1082 of 2561) and 17.4% (447 of 2561). Whereas liver fat is associated with predictors related to the metabolic syndrome, liver iron content is mainly associated with mean serum corpuscular hemoglobin.”
