Lateral ventricular volume and calcarine sulcus depth: a fetal MRI analysis of mild ventriculomegaly: A STROBE compliant article.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The aim of this study was to quantify changes in the lateral ventricular volume, the depth of the calcarine sulcus (CS), and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of occipital lobe in fetuses with isolated mild ventriculomegaly (IMVM) using MRI.Seventy-one fetuses with IMVM at 25 to 38 weeks gestational age (GA) and 58 fetuses with normal lateral ventricles at 25 to 38 weeks GA were enrolled. Volumes of the lateral ventricles were measured by 3D magnetic resonance hydrography. Depths of the CS and ADC values were also evaluated. All differences were tested by t test. Bivariate correlations were performed using Pearson method.Fetuses with IMVM had significantly larger lateral ventricular volumes and smaller CS depths than controls (volumes: 9.37 ± 2.20 mL vs 5.04 ± 1.33 mL, respectively, P < .001; depths: 8.27 ± 2.55 mm vs 10.30 ± 3.14 mm, respectively, P < .001). In IMVM cases, the CS depths were smaller on the side with the larger ventricle (8.10 ± 2.54 mm vs 9.59 ± 2.81 mm, P < .001). No differences were observed in occipital lobe ADC values between the2 groups (IMVM = 1.80 ± 0.24 μm/ms; controls = 1.78 ± 0.28 μm/ms, P > .05).Fetuses with IMVM had larger lateral ventricular volumes, shallower CS depths, but normal occipital lobe ADC values.
