Obesity and Body Composition in Relation to Liver and Kidney Ultrasound Elastography in Paediatric Patients with Either Hypertension or Chronic Kidney Disease.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
(1) Background: Ultrasound elastography is a novel ultrasound technique for evaluating tissue elasticity. One of the key factors influencing the measurement in children is excess weight. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of body composition, namely, fat mass, on liver and kidney ultrasound elastography in paediatric patients. (2) Methods: 114 participants, in whom bioimpedance, along with liver and kidney ultrasound elastography, were performed, were included (37 patients with chronic kidney disease, 46 patients with hypertension, and 31 healthy subjects). (3) Results: Bioimpedance analysis showed a significant correlation between liver elastography parameters and the phase angle (
