Research on pediatric glomerular disease and normal kidney with shear wave based elastography point quantification.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
purposeTo evaluate the renal cortex stiffness in children with glomerular disease by shear wave based elastography point quantification (ElastPQ), and to investigate the association between shear wave velocity (SWV) in the renal cortex and age in normal children, and the inter-gender differences. MATERIALS AND
methodsOne hundred and five children who were pathologically confirmed with glomerular diseases were selected as the disease group. Meanwhile, 120 healthy children were selected as the control group. Effective values were measured 5 times at the same kidney sites on each side.
resultsComparisons of SWV measurements between left and right kidneys in the disease and control groups all showed significant differences (left kidney t = 6.896, P = 0.004; right kidney t = 7.415, P = 0.001). In the control group, left and right kidney SWV measurements were all positively correlated with age (left kidney r = 0.792, P = 0.003; right kidney r = 0.794, P = 0.004). Moreover, inter-gender difference was present in the right kidney measurements.
conclusionsElastPQ technology has certain advantages in predicting pediatric glomerular disease compared to conventional ultrasound. ElastPQ technology contributes to the early diagnosis of the disease.
