Vascular evaluation using transabdominal ultrasound for gallbladder polyps.
Review in Journal of medical ultrasonics (2001), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Ultrasound (US) is a cost-effective and noninvasive procedure without radiation exposure, with real-time evaluation and high spatial resolution. Although it is useful for the detection of gallbladder (GB) polyps, including gallbladder cancer, adenoma, and benign polyps, conventional US is insufficient for differential diagnosis because it is not capable of evaluating hemodynamic information, unlike computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. With recent technological advances in US equipment and contrast agents, Doppler imaging and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) are being used to characterize GB polyps, and several reports on evaluation of the vascularity of GB polyp have been published. In this review, we aimed to report the latest developments in the hemodynamic diagnosis of GB polyps based on previous reports, with an emphasis on CEUS, and to evaluate the efficacy for differential diagnosis. The information in this article is expected to enable early diagnosis and prompt surgical treatment for gallbladder cancer.
