Metrics-driven successful strategy by emergency and radiology driven task force to mitigate global CT contrast media shortage in a safety net hospital.
Review in Journal of clinical imaging science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Iodinated contrast media (ICM) shortages and secondary supply chain problems due to Coronavirus Disease lockdowns in China significantly impacted radiology operations nationwide. The lack of ICM necessitated operational workflow changes designed to ration contrast use, particularly in the hospital setting. In this manuscript, we share our strategic methods with advanced process/outcome metrics to monitor the effectiveness of our strategy under a coordinated multidisciplinary team effort. Alternate studies such as substituting magnetic resonance angiography for computed tomographic angiography for emergency department patients were studied to measure the suitability of these examinations for specific diagnoses. This article presents readers with a comprehensive crisis management strategy deployed at our institution, emphasizing various options with a limited ICM supply, and minimizing the impact on clinical care.
