Brain fetal neuroradiology: a beginner's guide.
Review in Translational pediatrics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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 importance of fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the prenatal diagnosis of central nervous system (CNS) anomalies is rapidly increasing. Fetal MRI represents a third level examination usually performed, as early as 18-20 weeks of gestational age, when a second level (expert) neuro-ultrasonography (US) evaluation raises the suspicion of a CNS anomaly or when a genetic disorder is known. Compared to the US, MRI has the advantage to allow a better visualization and characterization of brain structures so to detect anomalies not visible in the US, thus resulting in relevant implications for parent counselling and pregnancy management. Moreover, the improvement of MRI technologies permits to obtain ultrafast sequences, which minimize the drawback of movement artifacts, and to perform advanced studies. This review aims at providing a practical guide for trainees and fellows who are approaching fetal MRI. In the first part, we provide information about indications, safety and protocols based on the state-of-the-art sequences, with a mention on the innovations related to the use of a 3T scanner. The second part is focused on the normal development of the human fetal brain related to its MR appearance, whose knowledge is essential to detect possible abnormalities. The last section briefly describes the most frequent abnormalities in the fetal brain and spine as depicted by MRI.
