Giant rectus sheath hematoma.
Article in The ultrasound journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundRectus sheath hematoma (RSH) is an uncommon entity associated with predisposing factors such as anticoagulation. It may mimic more frequent abdominal conditions and its accurate diagnosis is important to focus on the correct treatments and improve morbidity and mortality. CASE PRESENTATION: An elderly patient with shock, abdominal pain, palpable abdominal mass, and anemia was suspected of having a large RSH by point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), which was then confirmed by computed tomography. Surgery was performed, markedly improving his clinical status.
conclusionsPOCUS has a good sensitivity for the diagnosis of RSH and it is also an excellent tool for patient follow-up.
