Submassive Pulmonary Embolism: A Re-evaluation of Hemodynamic Instability.
Article in Cureus, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
Current medical management of pulmonary embolism (PE) is driven by risk stratification, with thrombolytic treatment reserved for patients with hemodynamic instability. We describe a case of a man with acute submassive bilateral pulmonary emboli and a right popliteal deep vein thrombosis (DVT), who had persistent shortness of breath, tachycardia, and hypoxemia but remained normotensive and was therefore not treated with thrombolytics until he suffered a fatal cardiac arrest on hospital day six. We examine the indications, risks, and potential benefits of thrombolytic treatment in patients with submassive PE who exhibit signs of instability but do not meet current indications for thrombolytic treatment with persistent hypotension or shock.
