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

Echocardiography is an essential tool in emergency medicine, yielding valuable information for physicians that directly affects diagnostic and management strategies. Emergency department (ED) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is an increasingly common procedure performed in a variety of institutions, allowing for ongoing cardiac imaging during cardiopulmonary resuscitation as well as providing high-resolution assessment of both cardiac and aortic anatomy. However, despite the numerous benefits of ED TEE, the process of implementing this modality within a department is difficult because of unique process and cost considerations. This paper serves to provide an updated and in-depth description of these processes to assist with the initiation of such a program, including a detailed discussion of budgetary considerations, physician credentialing, and device use and maintenance protocols.
