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

purposeto assess the influence of intravenous hydration and forced diuresis with furosemide in two different dosages (20 vs 40 mg) on the intensity of tracer accumulation in the urinary collection system and on the occurrence of halo artefact surrounding the urinary bladder and kidneys in [ MATERIALS AND

methodsComparison of four groups with 50 patients each, receiving different preparation prior to [

resultsHalo artefact of the urinary bladder was present in twelve patients without preparation, in eight patients receiving only sodium chloride, in one patient injected with 20 mg furosemide/sodium chloride and in two patients receiving 40 mg furosemide/sodium chloride, showing a median SUV
