Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Diagnosed on Point-of-Care Echocardiogram in an Elderly Patient With Syncope.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A bedside echocardiogram in the emergency department can provide a wealth of information about a patient's hemodynamic status, anatomical structures, and response to medical interventions. This readily available tool can drastically guide management within minutes as soon as the undifferentiated critically ill patient enters the hospital. In this clinical scenario, we report a case of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) that was diagnosed for the first time in an elderly male, who was brought to the emergency department after a syncopal episode, utilizing bedside ultrasound and it highlights the significance of considering a broad differential.
