Lowering fluoroscopy pulse rates to reduce radiation dose during cardiac procedures.
Article in Journal of medical radiation sciences, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Radiation dose to patients undergoing cardiac imaging procedures in cardiac catheterisation laboratories (cath labs) can be relatively high, so implementing strategies to reduce dose is important. Lowering the fluoroscopy pulse rate is a simple, yet effective method to reduce radiation dose. Sensible, iterative changes made in this area have the potential for significant patient and staff radiation dose reduction.
