Goal-directed haemodynamic therapy: an imprecise umbrella term to avoid.
Article in British journal of anaesthesia, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
'Goal-directed haemodynamic therapy' describes various haemodynamic treatment strategies that have in common that interventions are titrated to achieve predefined haemodynamic targets. However, the treatment strategies differ substantially regarding the underlying haemodynamic target variables and target values, and thus presumably have different effects on outcome. It is an over-simplifying approach to lump complex and substantially differing haemodynamic treatment strategies together under the term 'goal-directed haemodynamic therapy', an imprecise umbrella term that we should thus stop using.
