Magnetic resonance urography: a practical approach to preparation, protocol and interpretation.
Review in Pediatric radiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Magnetic resonance urography (MRU) is an important MRI application that provides noninvasive comprehensive morphological and functional evaluation of the kidneys and urinary tract. It can be used to assess congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract, which often present as urinary tract dilation. In children, MRU allows for high tissue contrast and high spatial resolution without requiring ionizing radiation. Magnetic resonance urography requires patient preparation in the form of pre-examination intravenous hydration, placement of a urinary catheter, and the administration of diuretics at the time of the exam. The imaging protocol is based on T2-weighted images for anatomical assessment and dynamic post-contrast images for functional evaluation. These images are then used to generate quantitative and graphic results including contrast transit and excretion time as well as to calculate differential renal function. This review focuses on a simple approach to pediatric MRU acquisition and interpretation based on clinical cases and the authors' experience.
