Spinal gout diagnosed by dual-energy CT: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Axial gout is an atypical presentation of gout caused by monosodium urate deposition in the axial skeleton. Spinal gout presents nonspecifically and can be a difficult diagnosis. The diagnosis of gout is a clinical one, with imaging and labs providing supporting evidence. Current imaging modalities such as magnetic resonance, computed tomography, and X-ray can be nonspecific and lead to invasive procedures for diagnosis. Dual-energy computed tomography allows clear visualization of urate collection and is a valuable tool to make a confident diagnosis of spinal gout. Here, we present a case of a man with longstanding severe gout in which dual-energy computed tomography played a key role in diagnosis.
