Trans-Cervical Ultrasound Imaging of the Adult Palatine Tonsils.
Review in Journal of medical radiation sciences, 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
Trans-cervical ultrasound of the palatine tonsils provides a non-invasive technique to image the adult tonsils and the associated peritonsilar space to investigate intratonsillar and peritonsillar abscesses. The peritonsilar space, where peritonsillar cellulitis and abscesses are located is readily identified sonographically between the palatine tonsil and the superior constrictor muscle, which can be used as a helpful sonographic landmark. An understanding of the sonographic anatomy, technique, landmarks and imaging appearances is essential to correctly perform and interpret ultrasound imaging of the adult palatine tonsils which is unpacked in this narrative review.
