Ultrasound innovations in abdominal radiology: evaluation of focal liver lesions.
Review in Abdominal radiology (New York), 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
Focal liver lesions (FLLs) are common and are often first identified on abdominal ultrasound examinations. Although CT and MRI were historically required to noninvasively characterize many FLLs, introduction of microbubble contrast agents produced a groundbreaking change as contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) showed vascularity to the capillary level for the first time. CEUS shows specific arterial phase enhancement patterns in benign lesions and accurately differentiates malignant lesions based on the timing and intensity of washout. Parametric time of arrival and microvascular imaging techniques can demonstrate vascularity in FLLs with significantly improved sensitivity compared with conventional Doppler techniques. Shear-wave elastography and quantitative ultrasound are generally used to evaluate diffuse liver disease but show promise in evaluation of FLLs.
