Article in Der Anaesthesist, 2004. 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
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by perfusion in favor of non-ventilated areas of the lungs as the main cause of intrapulmonary right-to-left shunt and hypoxemia. Therapeutic interventions to selectively influence pulmonary perfusion in ARDS became possible with the introduction of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO), which provided a way not only to reduce pulmonary hypertension, but also to acutely improve ventilation-perfusion mismatch, and thus to treat severe hypoxemia. Clinical studies in ARDS demonstrated that the combination of iNO with other interventions, such as positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and prone positioning, yielded beneficial and additive effects on arterial oxygenation. Although randomized controlled trials of this concept have up to now failed to show an improved outcome, iNO is a valuable option for the treatment of severe refractory hypoxemia in ARDS patients.
