Imaging assessment of groin pain.
Review in Musculoskeletal surgery, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Groin pain is a common condition in athletes, especially those who play certain sports, for instance soccer, ice hockey, fencing which request rapid acceleration and frequent changes of movement. This condition represents a diagnostic difficulty for the radiologist due to either the anatomical pubic region complexity than the many causes that can be a source of pain, because the groin pain can be determined by conditions affecting the bony structures, cartilage and muscle tendons that are part of the proper pubis but also from those involving the hip. The approach to the groin through diagnostic imaging is multidisciplinary: The study of the patient is performed by traditional radiographs, ultrasound examination, magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomography, based on clinical suspicion, and each of these methods provides different results depending on the disease in question. The purpose of this article is to examine what are the optimal imaging techniques to investigate the various diseases affecting the patient with groin pain.
