1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Point-of-care ultrasound has been widely used by clinicians at the bedside in recent years. Various types of point-of-care ultrasound practices are employed, especially in pediatric emergency rooms and intensive care units. Pediatric intensive care specialists perform point-of-care ultrasound virtually as a part of physical examination since it provides just-in-time vital clinical information, which could assist in acute management strategies in critically ill patients. Measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter using point-of-care ultrasound is a noninvasive and radiation-free technique to determine raised intracranial pressure. Ophthalmic artery and central retinal artery Doppler indices can be used as transcranial Doppler to assess raised intracranial pressure. The aim of this review was to provide detailed information on ultrasonographic measurements of optic nerve sheath diameter and central retinal artery Doppler indices as techniques of interest for predicting increased intracranial pressure in pediatric patients in view of the literature.
