Diagnostic Value of Bedside Lung Ultrasonography in Pneumonia.
Observational study in Ultrasound in medicine & biology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Bedside lung ultrasonography (LUS) is a reliable method for the diagnosis of pneumonia. No common consensus exists in the literature regarding the effectiveness of LUS findings, except consolidation, for the diagnosis of pneumonia. The primary objective of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of LUS for the diagnosis of pneumonia, and the secondary objective was to investigate the use of LUS findings, except consolidation, for the diagnosis of pneumonia. A total of 127 patients with clinically suspected pneumonia were evaluated in the study. The sensitivity and specificity of LUS were 98.0% and 95.8%, respectively. In the cases where consolidation was not determined in LUS but B-3 line positivity or a diffuse interstitial pattern was present, the sensitivity and specificity were 93.3% and 88.2%, respectively. When consolidation was not observed in LUS, the presence of B-3 line positivity or diffuse interstitial pattern could be used for the diagnosis of pneumonia.
