Cardiac arrest due to pulmonary embolism.
Synthesis in Indian heart journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a potentially life threatening clinical condition that is fairly non-specific in presentation. Massive pulmonary embolism (PE) without cardiac arrest has been associated with a mortality rate of 30%. However, when cardiac arrest ensues, mortality may be as high as 95%. Since outcomes of cardiac arrest following PE are generally dismal, any available potentially life-saving measure must be instituted when the diagnosis of PE is suspected. Despite a lack of randomized controlled trials guiding the management of suspected PE in the cardiac arrest victim, thrombolysis and other therapies have been associated with good outcomes in the handful of published case reports and other small studies.
