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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: To investigate the advantages of color Doppler ultrasound (CDUS) in detecting hemodynamic alterations in children with moyamoya disease (MMD) following combined revascularization surgery. Methods: The common carotid artery (CCA), internal carotid artery (ICA), external carotid artery (ECA), and superficial temporal artery (STA) were measured by CDUS. Hemodynamic parameters including arterial diameter, peak systolic velocity (PSV), resistance index (RI), and blood flow volume (FV) were collected at three time points: pre-operation (T1), one week after operation (T2), and three months after operation (T3). Twelve children without intracranial arterial disease were recruited as the control group. Matsushima classification-based on digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was applied at T2. Results: Among the 12 children with MMD, 11 patients with bilateral arterial stenosis and 1 patient with unilateral being affected. Compared to the 24 control hemispheres, the diameter of the ICA was significantly smaller in the 23 MMD hemispheres ( Conclusion: As a noninvasive imaging modality, carotid and superficial temporal arteries ultrasound may serve as a valuable adjunct to invasive imaging techniques for children with MMD.
