Assessment of lower urinary tract function in pediatrics using ultrasonography.
Review in Journal of medical ultrasonics (2001), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ultrasound imaging is a less invasive imaging modality without radiation exposure and is available for repeated tests. It is the gold standard examination for diagnosing and managing disorders of the urinary tract, including lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) in pediatric urology. Ultrasound imaging is effective for screening underlying diseases and determining treatment strategies. Ultrasound examination at the bedside should focus on post-voided residual urine (PVR), bladder wall thickening, renal morphology, and rectal diameter. Since PVR must be tested immediately after voiding, examining infants who cannot complain of the urge to void is difficult. PVR measurement combined with a 4-h voiding observation or alarm system activated by urine is recommended for these infants. Early diagnosis is important because LUTD is associated with the risk of morbid residual urine and high voiding pressure, which can result in renal deterioration, urinary leakage, and febrile urinary tract infection.
