Ultrasound and interstitial lung disease: use and limitations.
Article in La Radiologia medica, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The Connective Tissue Diseases (CTDs)-related Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) early diagnosis by Transthoracic Ultrasound (TUS) still arises several issues. Gutierrez et al. clearly underlined the current role of ultrasound artifacts for ILD definition according to some Authors. In this Letter to the Editor, we would like to highlight the proper role of TUS and its pitfalls.
