Feasibility of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in confirming intranodal needle position for dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance lymphangiography in children.
Article 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
This report demonstrates the feasibility and safety of using contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) to confirm intranodal needle position in children requiring dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance lymphangiography (DCMRL). A total of 7 patients were evaluated using CEUS after nodal puncture on a detachable magenetic resonance table, with 2 nodes cannulated in each patient, resulting in a combined evaluation of 14 nodes. The nodal cannulation success rate using CEUS was 85.7% (12/14 nodes). DCMRL was performed successfully in all patients with good contrast opacification of the central conducting lymphatics. Out of the 14 nodes, 2 nodes in the same patient demonstrated persistent extravasation on CEUS despite needle readjustment, requiring conversion to fluoroscopic lymphangiography. No adverse event related to the injection technique or CEUS was reported.
