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

backgroundVoiding cystourethrography continues to be the gold standard in the diagnostics of a wide range of diseases of the urinary tract in children. MATERIAL AND

methodsIndications, implementation of voiding cystourethrography in terms of preparation, materials used, dealing with the child and the parents as well as the standardized examination technique are presented. In particular, the technical aspects of fluoroscopy devices and criteria for good image quality are discussed. Case studies are used to illustrate the problems of frequent urological diseases. DISCUSSION: The three standard examinations for the detection of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), radionuclide cystography, contrast-enhanced voiding urosonography and voiding cystourethrography are compared. Their potential for detecting VUR and additional urological pathologies is discussed in detail. Furthermore, the optimized examination technique of voiding cystourethrography is presented. The applicability of the current dose reference values of the German Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BfS) in the daily routine is discussed and the feasibility of the dose reference values is explained.
