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

Neurological and neuroradiological manifestations in patients with COVID-19 have been extensively reported. Available imaging data are, however, very heterogeneous. Hence, there is a growing need to standardise clinical indications for neuroimaging, MRI acquisition protocols, and necessity of follow-up examinations. A NeuroCovid working group with experts in the field of neuroimaging in COVID-19 has been constituted under the aegis of the Subspecialty Committee on Diagnostic Neuroradiology of the European Society of Neuroradiology (ESNR). The initial objectives of this NeuroCovid working group are to address the standardisation of the imaging in patients with neurological manifestations of COVID-19 and to give advice based on expert opinion with the aim of improving the quality of patient care and ensure high quality of any future clinical studies. KEY POINTS: • In patients with COVID-19 and neurological manifestations, neuroimaging should be performed in order to detect underlying causal pathology. • The basic MRI recommended protocol includes T2-weighted, FLAIR (preferably 3D), and diffusion-weighted images, as well as haemorrhage-sensitive sequence (preferably SWI), and at least for the initial investigation pre and post-contrast T1 weighted-images. • 3D FLAIR should be acquired after gadolinium administration in order to optimise the detection of leptomeningeal contrast enhancement.
