[Ultrasound in the diagnostic management of malignant lymphomas].
Article in Der Radiologe, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Ultrasound is most useful in detecting and characterizing peripheral and abdominal lymph nodes and infiltration of solid organs. B-mode criteria, such as size, shape, number, distribution architecture, echogenicity and delineation of margins are the basis for characterizing lymph nodes. Additionally color coding techniques such as color Doppler, B-flow and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) contribute to the evaluation of the nodal vasculature and vessel architecture. Whenever possible high frequency probes should not only be used for evaluating peripheral lymph nodes but also for lymphatic infiltration of solid organs, especially the spleen. The CEUS technique will be of additional benefit in detecting characterizing potential lymphatic organ infiltration. Ultrasound is an ideal tool for guided punctures, for which core biopsies should be preferred over fine needle aspiration biopsy and CEUS can also be used for proving residual viable tissue after chemotherapy or radiation therapy.
