The role of noninvasive imaging in the diagnostic workup for pulsatile tinnitus.
Article in The neuroradiology journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectiveWe sought to assess the diagnostic yield of advanced noninvasive imaging in the evaluation of patients with pulsatile tinnitus.
backgroundPulsatile tinnitus can be caused by high-risk cerebrovascular pathologies such as arteriovenous fistulae. The role of advanced noninvasive imaging, including magnetic resonance angiography and magnetic resonance venography, in the diagnostic evaluation of pulsatile tinnitus is not well defined. DESIGN AND
methodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study of patients presenting for outpatient diagnostic evaluation of pulsatile tinnitus from January 2018 to March 2020 at Weill Cornell Medicine. Patients with non-pulsatile tinnitus and established etiologic diagnoses were excluded. Systematic chart abstraction was summarized using standard descriptive statistics. Univariate logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with nondiagnostic noninvasive imaging.
resultsA total of 187 patients (139 (74.3%) women) took part in this study, with a mean age of 48.6 years (standard deviation (
conclusionNoninvasive cerebrovascular imaging often uncovers the etiology of pulsatile tinnitus. DSA remains useful for additional evaluation for patients with specific associated features.
