Comparison of continuous infusion and intermittent boluses of furosemide in acute heart failure: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundAcute heart failure (HF) is a common cause of hospital admission. This study aims to compare continuous infusion and intermittent boluses of furosemide in treating acute HF.
methodsThis protocol of systematic review and meta-analysis has been drafted under the guidance of the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses protocols. Electronic databases including Web of Science, Embase, PubMed, Wanfang, Data, Scopus, Science Direct, and Cochrane Library will be searched in June 2021 by 2 independent reviewers. The main outcomes are post-treatment daily urine output, weight, length of stay, serum sodium, potassium, and creatinine. Two researchers conducted a quality assessment in strict accordance with the risk bias assessment tool recommended by the Cochrane Handbook Version5.3. We performed the meta-analysis by Stata version 10.0 software.
resultsThe results of this systematic review and meta-analysis will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.
conclusionThe choice of furosemide regime in acute HF remains physician preference. Both bolus and continuous infusion yields satisfactory outcomes.
