Treating acute hypertensive cardiogenic pulmonary edema with high-dose nitroglycerin.
Article in Turkish journal of emergency medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Acute pulmonary edema due to sympathetic surge and increased peripheral vascular resistance often present to the emergency department (ED) with markedly elevated blood pressure, severe dyspnea, and desaturation. This condition is known as "SCAPE" (sympathetic crashing acute pulmonary edema). We present three SCAPE patients who were successfully treated with high-dose nitroglycerin (NTG) and bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) ventilation. All three patients presented with respiratory failure on arrival but rapidly improved after treatment and did not require endotracheal intubation or admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). SCAPE patients usually present to the ED with extreme respiratory distress associated with diaphoresis, restlessness, and high blood pressure. Emergency physicians must know how to manage SCAPE with high-dose nitrates and NIPPV (noninvasive positive pressure ventilation) because, when treated promptly, one will not only save a life but also obviate the need for endotracheal intubation and ICU admission.
