On the Impact of Different Lung Ultrasound Imaging Protocols in the Evaluation of Patients Affected by Coronavirus Disease 2019: How Many Acquisitions Are Needed?
Article in Journal of ultrasound in medicine : official journal of the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 papers, 4 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
Lung ultrasound (LUS) is currently being extensively used for the evaluation of patients affected by coronavirus disease 2019. In the past months, several imaging protocols have been proposed in the literature. However, how the different protocols would compare when applied to the same patients had not been investigated yet. To this end, in this multicenter study, we analyzed the outcomes of 4 different LUS imaging protocols, respectively based on 4, 8, 12, and 14 LUS acquisitions, on data from 88 patients. Results show how a 12-area acquisition system seems to be a good tradeoff between the acquisition time and accuracy.
