[The lymphatic system-an interdisciplinary challenge].
Review in Radiologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2025. 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
backgroundCongenital and acquired diseases as well as iatrogenic injuries to the lymphatic system pose significant differential diagnostic challenges for both diagnostic and interventional radiology. With the new diagnostic options and minimally invasive therapies, radiology has a central role in the clinical workflow of these diseases.
aimThis work is intended to provide an overview of the differential diagnostic spectrum and explain possible workflows, outlining which diagnostic procedures can be used in which sequence, and what options for minimally invasive therapies exist for the individual diseases.
methodsFor this purpose, appropriate overviews of various entities and differential diagnostic workflows were compiled and options for corresponding clinical pathways are presented.
resultsInjuries and diseases of the lymphatic system cover a broad differential diagnostic spectrum. The classification of the corresponding entity on the basis of patient history, clinical presentation, and imaging is crucial to effectively employ specific diagnostic procedures such as magnetic resonance (MR) lymphography or transnodal fluoroscopic lymphangiography. The latter simultaneously allows the combination with minimally invasive therapeutic approaches, including both recanalizing and embolization or sclerosing techniques. Interdisciplinary approaches and care for patients with complex illnesses in specialized centers offer advantages for care, analogous to oncology.
conclusionNew methods in both diagnostic lymphangiography and therapeutic minimally invasive interventions pose new challenges for radiology, which should be met in an interdisciplinary setting, especially in patients with complex situations.
