Clinical Implications of Hepatic Hemodynamic Evaluation by Abdominal Ultrasonographic Imaging in Patients With Heart Failure.
Observational study in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Background It has been reported that liver stiffness assessed by transient elastography are correlated with right atrial pressure, which is associated with worse outcome in patients with heart failure (HF). We aimed to clarify clinical implications of hepatic hemodynamic evaluation (liver congestion and hypoperfusion) by abdominal ultrasonography in patients with HF. Methods and Results We performed abdominal ultrasonography, right-heart catheterization, and echocardiography, then followed up for cardiac events such as cardiac death or worsening HF in patients with HF. Regarding liver congestion, liver stiffness assessed by shear wave elastography (SWE) of the liver was significantly correlated with right atrial pressure determined by right-heart catheterization (
