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

Pediatric musculoskeletal infection can be a challenging clinical diagnosis. MRI protocols should be tailored appropriately to diagnose and localize sites of infection, to determine alternative pathologies that could explain the child's presentation, and to identify complications that could alter treatment or lead to devastating consequences in growing bones. In this review, we discuss MRI protocols tailored for suspected acute appendicular musculoskeletal infection in children. These protocols are based on patient age in order to generally reflect the developmental stage of the child, the corresponding relevant anatomy and physiology, and the skeletal maturity-dependent physiopathology of musculoskeletal infections.
