Bedside contrast-enhanced ultrasound diagnosing cessation of cerebral circulation in a neonate: A novel bedside diagnostic tool.
Article in The neuroradiology journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04640038 (Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 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.

Abstract
Imaging diagnosis of brain death is performed with either four-vessel cerebral angiography or radionuclide cerebral blood flow studies. Unfortunately, timely performance of either study at a critically ill period is not only cumbersome but not feasible in many cases. We present a case of a 6-month-old male three hours status post-cardiac arrest of unknown etiology who underwent contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for diagnosis of near absent perfusion, or near brain death. The patient passed away 30 minutes after the exam and clinical diagnosis of brain death was confirmed. The case report highlights the utility of CEUS for diagnosis of brain death. This can have significant clinical implications in neonates who may not be eligible for commonly used, cumbersome radiologic studies for diagnosis of brain death.
