Fractures of child abuse.
Review in Pediatric radiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 objective of this paper is to review common challenges when evaluating fractures in the setting of possible child abuse and approaches to navigate them. This paper reviews the variety of imaging modalities available for evaluating child abuse and the advantages/disadvantages of each. Additionally, the authors discuss management of equivocal fractures, including the impact of double-reading skeletal surveys. The complexity of dating the acuity of fractures in young children is discussed. Utilizing the knowledge of fracture type, fracture patterns and patient history, as well as in the setting of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the authors provide methods for determining the likelihood of abuse.
