Point-of-care ultrasonography in nephrology comes of age.
Review in Clinical kidney journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The physical exam is changing. Many have argued that the physical exam of the 21st century should include point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). POCUS is being taught in medical schools and has been endorsed by the major professional societies of internal medicine. In this review we describe the trend toward using POCUS in medicine and describe where the practicing nephrologist fits in. We discuss what a nephrologist's POCUS exam should entail and we give special attention to what nephrologists can gain from learning POCUS. We suggest a 'nephro-centric' approach that includes not only ultrasound of the kidney and bladder, but of the heart, lungs and vascular access. We conclude by reviewing some of the sparse data available to guide training initiatives and give suggested next steps for advancing POCUS in nephrology.
