Diagnostic reference levels in interventional neuroradiology procedures - a systematic review.
Synthesis in Neuroradiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionThe establishment of diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) is challenge for interventional neuroradiology (INR) due to the complexity and variability of its procedures.
objectiveThe main objective of this systematic review is to analyse and compare DRLs in fluoroscopy-guided procedures in INR.
methodsAn observational study reporting DRLs in INR procedures, specifically cerebral arteriography, cerebral aneurysm embolisation, cerebral thrombectomy, embolisation of arteriovenous malformations (AVM), arteriovenous fistulas (AVF), retinoblastoma embolisation, and spinal cord arteriography. Comprehensive literature searches for relevant studies published between 2017 and 2023 were conducted using the Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science databases.
resultsA total of 303 articles were identified through an extensive literature search, with 159 removed due to duplication. The title and abstract of 144 studies were assessed and excluded if they did not meet the inclusion criteria. Thirty-one out of the 144 articles were selected for a thorough full-text screening. Twenty-one articles were included in the review after the complete text screening.
conclusionThe different conditions of patients undergoing INR procedures pose a barrier to the standardization of DRLs; nevertheless, they are extremely important for monitoring and optimising radiological practices.
