Nuclear Imaging in Pediatric Cardiology: Principles and Applications.
Synthesis in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Nuclear imaging plays a unique role within diagnostic imaging since it focuses on cellular and molecular processes. Using different radiotracers and detection techniques such as the single photon emission scintigraphy or the positron emission tomography, specific parameters can be assessed: myocardial perfusion and viability, pulmonary perfusion, ventricular function, flow and shunt quantification, and detection of inflammatory processes. In pediatric and congenital cardiology, nuclear imaging can add complementary information compared to other imaging modalities such as echocardiography or magnetic resonance imaging. In this state-of-the-art paper, we appraise the different techniques in pediatric nuclear imaging, evaluate their advantages and disadvantages, and discuss the current clinical applications.
