[Acute abdomen : What the clinician wants to know from the radiologist].
Article in Der Radiologe, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
clinical issueAcute abdominal pain is a prevalent problem in the emergency department. The work-up has to include a broad spectrum of differential diagnoses, which should be narrowed down with respect to frequent diagnoses without overlooking rare but potentially even more severe pathologies. STANDARD RADIOLOGICAL
methodsThe radiological method of choice for the initial work-up after sonography is computed tomography, which has demonstrated the highest sensitivity and specificity for most findings. Plain film radiographs of the abdomen rarely contribute to the final diagnosis. Magnetic resonance imaging is reserved for selected cases, which are described in this article. ASSESSMENT: The clinical decision trees and recommendations, which need to be in the report depending on the diagnosis, are of relevance for every radiologist who deals with patients with acute abdominal presentations. PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS: Knowledge of the clinical diagnostic approach in patients with acute abdomen is an unavoidable prerequisite for optimal cooperation between clinicians and radiologists in acute situations.
