Magnetic resonance imaging of the pediatric mediastinum.
Review in Pediatric radiology, 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
The mediastinum, the central anatomical space of the thorax, is divided by anatomical landmarks but not by physical boundaries. The mediastinum is a conduit, a space through which cranial nerves, important nerve branches, the sympathetic chain, vascular structures, and visceral structures, the trachea and esophagus pass. This arrangement allows contiguous extension or communication of disease along facial planes and through potential spaces to and from the head and neck or cervical spine, to and from the superior mediastinum, between superior and inferior mediastinal levels, and between inferior mediastinal spaces into the intra- and retroperitoneal spaces. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the mediastinum in children poses technical challenges, in particular cardiac and respiratory motion, and diagnostic challenges, including a broad range of tissue types and possible diagnoses. In this paper we review mediastinal anatomy, MRI sequences and protocol choices and include a short discussion of features and MRI findings of some of the congenital and acquired pathologies that are most often encountered in the pediatric mediastinum.
