Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound Use in Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury.
Article in Journal of radiology nursing, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) is an inexpensive portable diagnostic tool commonly available within most healthcare systems. A team of trained individuals perform and interpret the test to inform patient care management. The benefit of TCD is well established in adult patients with traumatic brain injury. However, in children with TBI, it is still considered exploratory and its use is not a part of the standard of care. This article describes what TCD is, its use in children, and how TCD measurements apply to children and adolescents in an effort to establish criteria for the use of TCD for children with TBI. The benefit of TCD in pediatric TBI is illustrated by 2 cases of children who participated in a TBI research study. Early indications are that the use of TCD in pediatric cases of TBI may produce unexpected real-time data about the cerebral vasculature and circulation characteristics in children with TBI. Transcranial Doppler ultrasound has the potential for playing an informative diagnostic role in future pediatric TBI management. Ultimately the goal to promote best outcomes after a TBI requires insights into the multi-dynamic nature of the injury and TCD has the ability to support these efforts.
