Radiation exposure in adult and pediatric patients with osteogenesis imperfecta.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Diagnostic radiographs, computed tomography (CT), nuclear medicine studies, and intraoperative fluoroscopy durations were analyzed for radiation exposure. Cumulative and yearly effective ionizing radiation doses, cumulative background radiation, and total radiograph studies were compared between pediatric and adult populations. In 24 patients with 1,246 imaging studies (average 5.5 years longitudinal treatment duration), the mean estimated cumulative effective radiation dose per patient was 30.0 mSv (range 2.3-115.0), with an average yearly dose of 4.9 mSv (range 0.4-24.8). Pediatric patients had significantly more radiograph studies per year than adults and greater average yearly effective radiation doses.
