Acute Heart Failure in the Emergency Department: Respiratory Rate as a Risk Predictor.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
BACKGROUND/
aimSeveral risk scores can stratify patients with acute heart failure (AHF) at the Emergency Department (ED). Registration of vital signs, such as blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (RR) upon admission is mandatory. Nevertheless, measurement of RR remains neglected worldwide. PATIENTS AND
methodsThe predictive value of RR in classifying patients with AHF was investigated by processing several vital signs recorded in the ED.
resultsHR and RR individually did not discriminate patients according to hospitalization length, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admittance, mechanical respiratory support or death. The derivative indices, HR:RR and Respiratory Efficacy Index (REFI) (=RR×100/SatO
conclusionThe RR and its derivative indices are easily accessible vital signs monitored at the ED which merit 'revitalization'.
