Size-specific dose estimation in pediatric computed tomography: From dose characterization to individualized optimization.
Review in World journal of radiology, 2026. 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
Pediatric computed tomography (CT) is clinically indispensable for emergency care, neurologic disorders, thoracoabdominal diseases, trauma assessment, and oncologic diagnosis and follow-up. However, children should not be regarded as small adults. They are actively growing and developing, and organs or tissues such as the hematopoietic system, thyroid, breast, gonads, lens, central nervous system, and bone marrow are more sensitive to ionizing radiation. In addition, children have a longer life expectancy, allowing a longer latency window for radiation-related late effects. Epidemiological studies suggest associations between pediatric CT exposure and cumulative-dose-related risks of leukemia, brain tumors, and overall cancer; although the individual absolute risk is generally low, stricter justification, optimization, and dose recording remain necessary in pediatric populations.
