1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly being used for infants and small children due to rapid sequence protocols, broader scanner availability and good monitoring possibilities. The sequence protocol should always be adapted to the individual clinical needs of the infant or toddler. For some clinical indications, such as control of ventricular width in children with shunted hydrocephalus, ultrafast protocols can be used with a scanning time of just a few minutes. For more complex clinical questions, more extensive sequence protocols are warranted. Particularly for neonates and using a rapid investigation protocol, MRI examinations can very often be performed without sedation. The necessity of using gadolinium-based contrast agents has to be critically deliberated in infants and neonates and has to be exactly tailored to the clinical needs. In many cases MRI examinations of the brain in infants and neonates do not require gadolinium-based contrast agents.
