Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Liver Iron Overload: From Precise Quantification to Prognosis Assessment.
Review in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Liver iron overload is associated with conditions such as hereditary hemochromatosis, thalassemia major, and chronic liver diseases. The liver-related outcomes, patient outcomes, and treatment recommendations of these patients differ depending on the cause and extent of iron overload. Accurate quantification of the liver iron concentration (LIC) is critical for effective patient management. This review focuses on the application of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the precise quantification and prognostic assessment of liver iron overload. In recent years, the use of dual-energy CT and the emergence of MRI-based sequences (such as UTE, QSM, Dixon, and CSE technologies) have significantly increased the potential for noninvasive liver iron quantification. However, the establishment of internationally standardized imaging parameters, postprocessing procedures, and reporting protocols is urgently needed for better management of patients with liver iron overload.
