A validation study of electrical cardiometry in pregnant patients using transthoracic echocardiography as the reference standard.
Article in Journal of clinical monitoring and computing, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
To validate electrical cardiometry (EC) in pregnant patients using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) as the reference standard. To improve EC accuracy via a one-time, measurement of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) diameter. 44 non-laboring, resting women with singleton, viable pregnancies underwent simultaneous EC and TTE measurements. Data were analyzed using Bland-Altman analysis. Entry multiple regression with stepwise elimination was used to develop a model for improved prediction of stroke volume by TTE (SVTTE) using EC. Bootstrapping and an 11-fold cross validation were used to test the model. Heart rate by TTE and EC had a mean bias of 3.3 beats/min and mean percentage error of 10.7 %. Envelope time and left ventricular ejection time had a mean bias of -4.9 ms and mean percentage error 12.7 %. Stroke volumes by the two techniques had a mean bias of 15.6 mL and mean percentage error of 43.7 %. A model, SVEC_Modified, predicting SVTTE was developed using LVOT area, stroke volume by electrical cardiometry and weight. SVTTE and SVEC_Modified had a mean bias of -0.83 mL and mean percentage error of 22 %. EC accurately measures heart rate and duration of systole when compared with TTE. Stroke volume measurements correlate but have a high bias and percentage error. Knowledge of LVOT area, by a one-time, measurement with TTE, could improve prediction of stroke volume by EC.
