Dose development in sinonasal imaging over the last decade - a retrospective patient study.
Article in Head & face medicine, 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
backgroundComputed tomography (CT) has become the primary imaging modality for visualization of the paranasal sinuses. In this retrospective, single center patient study the radiation dose development in the past 12 years in CT imaging of the paranasal sinuses was assessed.
methodsThe computed tomography dose index (CTDI
resultsOver the past 12 years, there was a 73%, 54%, and 66% CTDI
conclusionTechnological developments in CT imaging, both hardware and software based, have led to a significant reduction in dose exposure in recent years. Particularly in imaging of the paranasal sinuses, the reduction of radiation exposure is of great interest due to the often young patient age and radiation-sensitive organs in the area of radiation exposure.
