Comparative Analysis of Ultrasonography and MicroCT Imaging for Organ Size Evaluation in Mice.
Article in Journal of imaging, 2025. 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
In this work, the authors compared microCT and in vivo ultrasonography in terms of accuracy and efficacy for measuring the volume of various organs in mice. Two quantification protocols were applied: ellipsoidal volume measuring maximum diameters in all three axes in both imaging systems and manual delineation of organ borders in microCT studies. The results were compared with ex vivo volumes. In general, both imaging techniques and quantification protocols are accurate, but ultrasound is faster in both acquisition and analysis. The only accurate method for heart volume measurement is manual segmentation on microCT. For the ovary, none of the techniques and protocols had a positive correlation with ex vivo volume. The three-diameter method can be used for ellipsoid organs because of its rapidity, but for more irregular structures, manual segmentation is recommended, although it is time-consuming.
