Pediatric encephalic ultrasonography: the essentials.
Review in Journal of ultrasound, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
Nowadays, cranial ultrasonography (US) of the newborn represents the first imaging method in brain damage study and its possible outcomes. This exam is performed using the natural fontanelles, especially the anterior one. It is fast, non-invasive and does not produce any side effect. Ultrasonographic examination is usually performed in cases of prematurity, especially in children with birth weight less than 1500 g, because important informations about the possible presence of pathologies such as cerebral hemorrhage and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy are given. This approach can be useful also in the study of pre- and post-natal infections, for example, type II Herpes Simplex virus or Cytomegalovirus infections, or pointing out vascular malformations such as vein of Galen aneurysm. Although less important than methods such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of trauma and tumors, ultrasound can provide useful informations or be used in first instance in the suspicion of a brain mass.
