[Imaging in intensive care units].
Review in Medizinische Klinik, Intensivmedizin und Notfallmedizin, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Imaging is essential in the diagnosis and treatment of critically ill patients. Although bedside ultrasound and chest x‑rays are the major tools in the initial assessment, there are a variety of imaging options available to physicians in the intensive care unit such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, or nuclear medicine. Bedside diagnostic tools or radiology intervention procedures also play an important role in the management of critically ill patients. The choice of imaging modality is sometimes difficult and should be based on current recommendations or guidelines, available equipment, and the experience of the examiner. With the increasing importance of costs, the diagnostic and therapeutic benefits of the imaging process must be maximized in line with minimizing costs. The various indications, strengths, and weaknesses of the imaging modalities are summarized and the diagnostic findings using clinical examples are discussed. The focus of this article is on imaging of the thorax and the diagnostic imaging methods used in the intensive care unit.
