Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy in Critical Pediatric Patients: A Pathologist's Perspective.
Review in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Bone marrow aspiration (BMA) and bone marrow biopsy (BMB), are medical modalities for the detection of non-malignant diseases as well as hematological malignancies in children. BMA attained momentum in the past few years owing to the possibility of achieving hematopoietic stem cells. Liquid bone marrow is aspirated through posterior/anterior iliac crest, tibia, and vertebral spinous process during BMA procedure in children for assessment of morphology at the microscopic level while BMB allows for cytological evaluation of marrow. It is also used for molecular genetics, immune-phenotypic, cytogenetics, and other specialized examinations. Additionally, BMA is also helpful in the reconstruction of tissue. These procedures should be performed by a specialist who has knowledge about the indication, contradictions, and hazards of these procedures due to their invasive nature. Still, there are no transparent guidelines available especially in the case of BMA for children. The purpose of this overview article is to focus on the specific guidelines to carry out the BMA and BMB in children and the techniques as well as complications associated with the BMA and BMB.
