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

Numerous pediatric conditions result in hepatic fibrosis. As treatments develop for the underlying disorders, a non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis would be beneficial as an adjunct or possible replacement for the traditional gold standard, liver biopsy. Magnetic resonance elastography is a noninvasive imaging technique that has been used successfully in adults for identification and assessment of liver fibrosis. This review describes the basic principles of MR elastography as well as the technical aspects specific to children. Clinical pediatric applications, limitations and areas for future research are described.
