Use of contrast-enhanced computed tomography to detect kidney infarction in dogs.
Article in Journal of veterinary internal medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundKidney infarction is a renovascular disease diagnosed by contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) in humans.
objectivesTo describe the frequency of kidney infarction and to determine the detection of kidney infarction with CECT in dogs. ANIMALS: Eight hundred and twenty-six abdominal CECT studies of 826 dogs.
methodsA cross-sectional retrospective study. Dogs with abdominal CT scans including CECT were retrospectively retrieved. Kidney infarction was classified into 3 grades based on the extent of infarction relative to total kidney area. The location and number of kidney infarctions in each kidney were expressed as number and percentage. The ability of visualization of kidney infarction in each multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) image plane was evaluated by agreement of 2 observers.
resultsThe frequency of kidney infarction in dogs was 3.15% (26/826 dogs; 95% CI = 2.05-4.61). Most kidney infarctions were classified as grade 1, or the lesions were less than 25% of the kidney (47/56, 83.93%) and most were detected at the caudal pole of the kidney (31/56, 55.35%) on the sagittal plane. On MPR image planes, the sagittal plane had the highest proportion (34/56, 60.71%) of excellent visual category to detect kidney infarction. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: The CECT, especially the sagittal plane, is a useful diagnostic tool for the detection of kidney infarction in dogs.
