Value of Echocardiography in the Treatment of Patients With Acute Heart Failure.
Review in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 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
Heart failure (HF) is a burden in pandemic medicine resulting in high mortality and morbidity. Because acute HF is a life-threatening event, its diagnosis and choice of optimal treatment are important to improve outcomes. Furthermore, understanding the cause and hemodynamics of acute HF is important in selecting the optimal treatment for these patients. Echocardiography is widely used in daily clinical practice because of its non-invasive nature and excellent portability to understand cardiac function and hemodynamics. Echocardiography is highly recommended by guidelines in the practice of HF, but evidence is limited. In this review, I would like to share clinical value of echocardiography in the treatment of patients with acute HF and discuss the usefulness of echocardiography.
