Esmolol Is Not the Solution: Thyroid Storm With Atrial Fibrillation.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Thyroid storm is a challenging medical emergency that requires urgent assessment and management in a timely manner. In this article, we report on a case of a 37-year-old female who presented to the emergency department with a thyroid storm complicated by atrial fibrillation (AF) with a rapid ventricular response with no clinical signs of heart failure. As part of her medical management to rate control her AF, she was started on an infusion of a short-acting beta blocker, esmolol, and shortly after, she developed cardiac arrest. This is the second case report published to highlight the significant response (cardiac arrest) of patients with thyroid storm complicated by AF to a low dose esmolol infusion as part of their medical management.
