Ingested Magnets Found Inadvertently During Elective Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
Article in Journal of medical cases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In the presence of a strong magnetic field such as for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ferromagnetic objects may become a source of patient or healthcare provider injury. To prevent such problems, careful screening of patients and healthcare workers is mandatory prior to MRI to identify contraindications to MRI including the presence of external or internal ferromagnetic products. We present a 2-year, 11-month-old child who presented for MRI to evaluate a potential vertebral anomaly. During initial scanning and image acquisition, image distortion was noted which was subsequently determined to be the result of ingested magnetic objects. The basic principles of MRI are discussed, safety pathways to prevent patient and practitioner risk related to ferromagnetic objects presented, and previous reports of patient-related adverse effects from internal ferromagnetic devices reviewed.
