Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse Imaging in Benign and Malignant Breast Lesions.
Article in Cureus, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundElastography is a promising way to assess tissue differences regarding stiffness or elasticity, which has been historically assessed manually by palpation. Combined with conventional imaging modalities, shear wave elastography can potentially evaluate the stiffness of a breast lesion and consequently help detect malignant breast tumor from benign ones. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic role of shear wave elastography in breast lesions in the Indian population. MATERIAL AND
methodsFifty patients presenting with breast lesions were included in the study. All the patients were subjected to B-mode ultrasound and elastography using shear wave with Virtual Touch Imaging (VTI
resultsIn our study group of 50 patients, 34 were benign and 16 were malignant. VTI
