[Radiation exposure of patients from diagnostic and interventional X-ray procedures. Facts, assessment and trends].
Review in Der Radiologe, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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
Man-made radiation exposure to the German population predominantly results from the medical use of ionizing radiation. According to the most recent evaluation, the mean effective dose per inhabitant and year from X-ray procedures increased from 1.6 to 1.8 mSv between 1996 and 2001. This rise is mainly caused by the expanding use of CT and reflects the growing importance of this imaging modality. Besides actual data on the frequency and dose of various types of X-ray examinations, patient-specific factors will be highlighted which have to be considered in the assessment of the associated individual and collective radiation risk. Moreover, different concepts to reduce radiation exposure of patients will be discussed as well as some current trends in health service that may affect radiation hygiene -- such as diagnosis-related groups for inpatients and CT screening.
