Review in Pediatric radiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06381128 (Detection of Coronary Arteries Anomalies by Computed Tomography Angiography in Children With Congenital Heart Disease), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

Imaging the coronary arteries of children, with their faster heart rates, small vessel size and common inability to lie still or breath-hold, has been a major challenge. With numerous advances in technology, CT examinations can now be performed quickly, often with children free-breathing and with much lower radiation doses than previously. This has led to increased use in children. Care must be taken with technique and choice of electrocardiogram (ECG)-gating technique to obtain adequate imaging for a diagnosis while keeping radiation dose as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA). In this paper, we discuss techniques and tips for CT imaging of the coronary arteries in children, including use of dual-source- and ultrawide-detector CT scanners.
