1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: Renal artery stenosis in children is rare, and the recommended diagnostic algorithm, including techniques such as catheter-based angiography, CT angiography, magnetic resonance angiography, and ultrasound, is controversial in pediatric cohorts. Case presentation: We report a case of an 11-year-old girl with renal artery stenosis in whom ultrasonography played a decisive role in confirming the diagnosis and accompanying therapeutic percutaneous transluminal renal artery angioplasty. Conclusion: Improved ultrasound techniques and the examiner's experience contribute to improving renal artery stenosis diagnosis in children. In particular, localized sensitive blood flow velocity analysis indicates the advantages of ultrasound compared to other imaging modalities in renal artery stenosis. Therefore, ultrasound should be a focus of future study designs addressing the search for the best diagnostic algorithm. Summary: The advantages of ultrasound techniques in pediatric patients with renal artery stenosis compared to other imaging modalities are highlighted.
