Measurements in cervical vertebrae CT of pediatric cases: normal values.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeThis study aims to determine the normal limits of atlanto-dental interval (ADI), basion-dens interval (BDI), basion-cartilaginous dens interval (BCDI), and prevertebral soft tissue thickness (PVSTT) according to age groups for normal pediatric cases. MATERIALS AND
methodsCT images of 256 pediatric patients aged between 1 and 15 years were retrospectively evaluated. ADI, BDI, BCDI and PVSTT measurements were performed.
resultsUpper normal limit (UNL) values for ADI were 2.65-4.8 mm. UNL values for PVSTT were found to be 6.9 mm at C1 level, 6.7 mm at C2 level, 9.3 mm at C3 level, 14.2 mm at C4 level, 14.1 mm at C5 level, 13.8 mm at C6 level and 12.8 mm at C7 level. The maximum value of BDI in the group with non-ossified os terminale was 12 mm, and in the group with ossified os terminale it was 10 mm. The UNL of BCDI determined for females was 5.1 mm, while the UNL for males was 5.6 mm.
conclusionWe propose the obtained values as the UNL values for ADI, BDI, BCDI and PVSTT on CT images in the pediatric population from 1 to 15 years.
