Accuracy of chest radiograph interpretation by emergency physicians.
Article in Emergency radiology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
Chest radiographs are one of the most complex imaging modalities to interpret. The objective of this study was to assess how accurately emergency physicians interpreted chest radiographs in relation to radiologist reports. Radiological descriptions of chest radiographs from 667 emergency department (ED) patients, aged 14 to 84 years, were retrospectively reviewed. The overall level of agreement and agreement for different categories (congestive heart failure, pneumonia, and other) were assessed in 312 cases for which reports were available. Statistical analysis was done using the chi-square test, and interobserver agreement was calculated. The proportion of agreement between emergency physician and radiologist reports for normal, congestive heart failure, and pneumonia cases was 84.3%, 41.4%, and 41.4%, respectively. Emergency department physicians frequently missed specific radiographic abnormalities, and there was considerable discrepancy between their interpretations and those of trained radiologists. The agreement for some diagnostic categories such as pneumonia and congestive heart failure was low. This study's findings emphasize the need for improving interpretive skills among ED physicians.
