The left ventricular outflow tract and carotid artery velocity time integrals.
Article in Frontiers in medical technology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 left ventricular outflow tract velocity time integral (LVOT VTI) is commonly used in the intensive care unit as a measure of stroke volume (SV) and how the SV changes in response to an intervention; therefore, the LVOT VTI is used to guide intravenous fluid management. Various peripheral Doppler surrogates are proposed to infer the LVOT VTI (e.g., measures from the common carotid artery). A recently-described, novel method of insonation has an excellent ability to detect change in the LVOT VTI. This approach raises important facets of Doppler flow and insonation error, as well as the general principles at play when using a peripheral artery to infer changes from the left ventricle. Relating the VTI of a peripheral artery to the LVOT VTI was recently described mathematically and may help clinicians think about the Doppler relationship between central and peripheral flow.
