Article in Der Anaesthesist, 2019. 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
These two case reports describe the use of transthoracic echocardiography in cardiac surgery patients during postoperative intensive care, when a pericardial hematoma developed. A focused echocardiographic examination was performed, which in both cases led to the correct diagnosis and revealed the cause for hemodynamic instability. Following additional computed tomography (CT) scans, cardiac surgery was performed on one patient, while in the other, bedside sonography was used for controlled pleural puncture and drainage of the pericardial hematoma. The case reports demonstrate that intrathoracic bleeding after cardiac surgery may develop with a latency of days to weeks, which can become hemodynamically relevant and require an intervention. Bedside point of care echocardiography opens the way for securing the diagnosis by means of CT or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) if the circulatory state of the patient allows this prior to hematoma drainage or evacuation.
