Chest imaging in pregnant patients with COVID-19: Recommendations, justification, and optimization.
Review in Acta radiologica open, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Evaluation of COVID-19 related complication is challenging in pregnancy, due to concerns about ionizing radiation risk to mother and the fetus. Although there are instances when diagnostic imaging is clinically warranted for COVID-19 evaluation despite the minimal risks of radiation exposure, often there are concerns raised by the patients and sometimes by the attending physicians. This article reviews the current recommendations on indications of chest imaging in pregnant patients with COVID-19, the dose optimization strategies, and the risks related to imaging exposure during pregnancy. In clinical practice, these imaging strategies are key in addressing the complex obstetrical complications associated with COVID-19 pneumonia.
