A systematic approach to transoesophageal echocardiography in the intensive care unit - a practical guide for intensivists.
Review in Anaesthesiology intensive therapy, 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
Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) has become a useful diagnostic and monitoring tool in critical care settings, especially when transthoracic echocardiography is difficult to perform. It gives valuable information in mechanical ventilation, especially in the prone position, in obese patients, and in patients with surgical dressings and chest tubes. Transthoracic echocardiography allows visualization of deep cardiac structures and their pathologies. It has extensive diagnostic implications. This article describes the systematic approach to critical care TOE examination with a detailed description of the views necessary for rapid haemodynamic assessment in critical care patients. It is concordant with European Diploma in Advanced Echocardiography (EDEC) requirements, and its structural approach is based on the author's experience acquired in the EDEC examination process. Performing TOE in an organized fashion can help to pinpoint most of the pathologies and monitor the treatment process in the intensive care unit.
