[CEUS-application possibilities in the musculoskeletal system].
Review in Der Radiologe, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
methodical issueContrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) offers easily accessible visualization and quantification of the skeletal muscle microcirculation and other tissues in vivo and in real-time with almost no side effects.
aimThe aim of this review is to present the increasing number of musculoskeletal CEUS applications. METHODICAL INNOVATIONS/PERFORMANCE: CEUS applications regarding the musculoskeletal system include applications at bone and joints extending beyond the visualization of only the muscular microcirculation. Besides basic muscle physiology, impaired microcirculation in patients with peripheral artery disease or diabetes mellitus and the diagnosis of inflammatory myopathies have been the subject of previous CEUS studies. More recent studies in orthopedics and traumatology have focused on osseous and muscular perfusion characteristics, e. g., in differentiating infected and aseptic non-unions or the impact of different types of implants and prostheses on muscular microcirculation as a surrogate marker of clinical success. PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS: CEUS of the musculoskeletal system is used in clinical trials or off-label. Therefore, it is not well established in clinical routine. However, considering the increasing number of musculoskeletal CEUS applications, this could change in the future.
