The Top 100 Most Cited Articles on Musculoskeletal Radiology: A Bibliometric Analysis.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The number of citations an article receives is reflective of its impact on the scientific community. The top 100 most cited articles were identified using the Web of Science database. Data relating to the publication year, publishing journal, number of citations, primary institution, journal impact factor, authorship, country of origin, radiological modality, and keywords were collected. In the top 100 list, the number of citations per article ranged from 149 to 709 (median 208; mean 240). Per article, the average number of citations per year ranged from five to 60 (median 12; mean 26). The United States was the most common country of origin (n=74). The journal with the greatest number of articles was Radiology (n=34). The University of California contributed the most articles (n=11). This study presents a detailed analysis of the top 100 most cited articles published in musculoskeletal radiology. It affords clinicians and researchers an understanding of the characteristics of the current most influential research papers in this field. It also highlights research trends and areas that may benefit from further research.
