Added Value of Ultrasound-Based Multimodal Imaging to Diagnose Hepatic Sclerosed Hemangioma before Biopsy and Resection.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. 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
Imaging methods have the overwhelming advantage of being non-invasive in the diagnosis of hepatic lesions and, thanks to technical developments in the field of ultrasound (US), radiation exposure can also be avoided in many clinical situations. In particular, contrast-enhanced US (CEUS) outperforms other radiological methods in regard to real-time images, repeatability, and prompt reporting and demonstrates relatively few contraindications and adverse reactions. In this study, we reported in detail a rare benign tumor: hepatic sclerosed hemangioma (HSH). We described US-based multimodal imaging (B-flow imaging, US elastography, and Sonazoid CEUS) features of this HSH case. Furthermore, by summarizing the recently published literature on the imaging diagnosis of HSH, we offered readers comprehensive knowledge of conventional imaging methods (CT, MRI) and CEUS in the diagnosis of HSH and preliminarily discussed their mechanism of pathology-based diagnosis. Our multimodal imaging approach may provide a diagnostic strategy for HSH, thus avoiding unnecessary biopsy or resection.
