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

Intravascular contrast media plays an important role in improving tissue and vascular characterisation in diagnostic imaging and image-guided intervention. Iodinated contrast media are commonly used in imaging modalities which utilise ionising radiation and gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCA) in magnetic resonance imaging. Intravascular use of iodinated contrast medium is associated with contrast-induced acute kidney injury and GBCA with nephrogenic systemic fibrosis, both of which can lead to potentially significant adverse outcomes in patients with kidney impairment. However, most studies in the literature focus on adults and the evidence in the paediatric population is scarce. In this review, we aim to examine the consensus guidelines and studies in the paediatric population who require intravascular iodinated contrast media and GBCA. At the end, we propose an algorithm to approach the use of intravascular contrast media in children who need to undergo diagnostic imaging or image-guided intervention.
