Transfontanelle photoacoustic imaging of intraventricular brain hemorrhages in live sheep.
Article in Photoacoustics, 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
Intraventricular (IVH) and periventricular (PVH) hemorrhages in preterm neonates are common because the periventricular blood vessels are still developing up to 36 weeks and are fragile. Currently, transfontanelle ultrasound (US) imaging is utilized for screening for IVH and PVH, largely through the anterior fontanelle. However for mild hemorrhages, inconclusive diagnoses are common, leading to failure to detect IVH/PVH or, when other clinical symptoms are present, use of second stage neuroimaging modalities requiring transport of vulnerable patients. Yet even mild IVH/PVH increases the risk of moderate-severe neurodevelopmental impairment. Here, we demonstrate the capability of transfontanelle photoacoustic imaging (TFPAI) to detect IVH and PVH in-vivo in a large animal model. TFPAI was able to detect IVH/PVH as small as 0.3 mL in volume in the brain (
