Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance lymphangiography in pediatric patients with central lymphatic system disorders.
Article in La Radiologia medica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Central conducting lymphatics (CCLs) disorders represent a broad spectrum of clinical entities ranging from self-limiting traumatic leaks treated by conservative strategies, to complex lymphatic circulation abnormalities that are progressive and unresponsive to currently available treatments. Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance lymphangiography (DCMRL) performed by intranodal injection of gadolinium-based contrast material is a recently developed technique which allows a minimally invasive evaluation of the CCL abnormalities providing a dynamic assessment of lymph flow and its pathways. In our institution, DCMRL is performed after bilateral cannulation of inguinal lymph nodes, using a MR protocol which includes volumetric 3D T2-SPACE (sampling perfection with application-optimized contrasts using different flip-angle evolution) and free-breathing respiratory navigated sequence and TWIST (time-resolved angiography with Interleaved stochastic trajectories) MR angiography sequence, during intranodal injection of paramagnetic contrast medium. Although DCMRL applications in clinical practice are still improving, a minimally invasive assessment of lymphatic pathways is particularly important both in pediatric patients with primitive lymphatic system disorders and in children with complex congenital heart disease associated with CCL impairment.
