Normal Growth, Sexual Dimorphism, and Lateral Asymmetries at Fetal Brain MRI.
Article in Radiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Background Tools in image reconstruction, motion correction, and segmentation have enabled the accurate volumetric characterization of fetal brain growth at MRI. Purpose To evaluate the volumetric growth of intracranial structures in healthy fetuses, accounting for gestational age (GA), sex, and laterality with use of a spatiotemporal MRI atlas of fetal brain development. Materials and Methods T2-weighted 3.0-T half-Fourier acquired single-shot turbo spin-echo sequence MRI was performed in healthy fetuses from prospectively recruited pregnant volunteers from March 2013 to May 2019. A previously validated section-to-volume reconstruction algorithm was used to generate intensity-normalized superresolution three-dimensional volumes that were registered to a fetal brain MRI atlas with 28 anatomic regions of interest. Atlas-based segmentation was performed and manually refined. Labels included the bilateral hippocampus, amygdala, caudate nucleus, lentiform nucleus, thalamus, lateral ventricle, cerebellum, cortical plate, hemispheric white matter, internal capsule, ganglionic eminence, ventricular zone, corpus callosum, brainstem, hippocampal commissure, and extra-axial cerebrospinal fluid. For fetuses younger than 31 weeks of GA, the subplate and intermediate zones were delineated. A linear regression analysis was used to determine weekly age-related change adjusted for sex and laterality. Results The final analytic sample consisted of 122 MRI scans in 98 fetuses (mean GA, 29 weeks ± 5 [range, 20-38 weeks]). All structures had significant volume growth with increasing GA (
