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

Considering the growing role of ultrasound-guided procedures in musculoskeletal medicine, training as regards these interventions is pivotal. While hands-on training on cadavers can be considered optimal, it has several drawbacks, e.g., high cost, poor availability, and technical challenges regarding preservation. Apart from cadavers, different approaches to practicing needle guidance are taught in ultrasound workshops whereby phantoms from meat (e.g., chicken breast), cheese or gelatin are used. Likewise, this article aims to provide a detailed description as to how different gelatin-based phantoms can be prepared. In line with the EURO-MUSCULUS/USPRM (European Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Study Group/Ultrasound Study Group of the International Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine) protocols/background, the authors describe particular basic and advanced phantoms to be used for practicing different technical/manual skills pertaining to common ultrasound-guided procedures. The present manuscript can be considered a practical and ready-to-use "recipe book" for readers who are interested in the wide spectrum of interventional ultrasound.
