Contrast Echocardiography for Assessing Myocardial Perfusion.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
purpose of reviewImprovements in ultrasound methods for detecting microbubble ultrasound enhancing agents have led to an increase in the use of perfusion imaging with myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE). This technique is now beginning to play an important role in specific clinical scenarios, which is the focus of this review. RECENT
findingsMCE was originally conceived as a technique for detecting resting perfusion abnormalities related to ischemia at rest or during stress from coronary artery disease. More recently, MCE has increasingly been used in circumstances where the technique's ability to provide rapid, quantitative, or bedside assessment of perfusion is advantageous. Quantitative MCE is also increasingly being used as a research technique for evaluating pathobiology and therapy that involve changes in the myocardial microcirculation. While MCE was developed and validated decades ago, it is only now beginning to be used by an increasing number of clinicians due to improvements in imaging technology and recognition of specific situations where the technique is impactful.
