1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Numerous publications have shown the value of structured reporting in communication with referring physicians and for further usage of clinical report data in other contexts. Despite the topic being present and known in radiology for many years now, widespread adoption of structured reporting in clinical routine is still lacking. All major radiological societies have published position statements in favor of structured reporting and are pursuing various related initiatives. Among those are the development and the maintenance of openly available structured report template repositories as well as quality control of report templates and development of standardized terminologies. This article highlights the efforts of the German Radiological Society and the European Society of Radiology on the topic of structured reporting and provides an overview of pros and cons as well as publicly available resources.
