CT pulmonary angiography in patients with acute or chronic renal insufficiency: Evaluation of a low dose contrast material protocol.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Adverse effects of intravenous contrast media (CM) in patients with renal risk factors and acute kidney injury are still controversially discussed. The aim of this study was to investigate whether dual-energy (DE) pulmonary CT angiography (CTPA) in combination with a noise optimized virtual monoenergetic imaging algorithm allows for a reduction of CM. This IRB-approved study comprised 150 patients with suspected pulmonary embolism (78 male; mean age 65 ± 17years). 50 patients with acute/chronic renal failure were examined on a 3
