The Clinical Value of Cranial CT Venography for Predicting
Article in AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2024. 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
background and purposeMATERIALS AND
methodsCT venography studies of 76 children hospitalized and treated for complicated acute mastoiditis were retrospectively reviewed. Retrieved imaging data included intracranial complications (epidural abscess, sinus venous thrombosis), cranial bone-related complications, and extracranial complications (subperiosteal abscess, temporomandibular joint abscess, and soft-tissue inflammation). The cohort was divided into children with
resultsThirty-seven children (49%) comprised the study group, and 39 children in whom the causative agents were other bacteria comprised the control group. There were significantly higher rates of complications in the study group: sinus venous thrombosis (
conclusionsIn children with complicated acute mastoiditis, CT venography findings of emphysematous osteomyelitis and/or thrombosis in venous sites beyond the sigmoid sinus and jugular foramen (a pattern consistent with the otogenic variant of Lemierre syndrome) should lead the radiologist to suggest
