The Comparison of Ultrasound and Tomographic Images of Lung Involvement in Critically Ill Patients With COVID-19 Pneumonia: A Prospective Observational Study.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction Computed tomography (CT) has a high sensitivity for diagnosing COVID-19 pneumonia in critically ill patients, but it has significant limitations. Lung ultrasonography (LUS) is an imaging method increasingly used in intensive care units. Our primary aim is to evaluate the relationship between LUS and CT images by scoring a critically ill patient who was previously diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia and underwent CT, as well as to determine their relationship with the patient's oxygenation. Methods This was a single-center, prospective observational study. The study included COVID-19 patients (positive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, RT-PCR) who were admitted to the intensive care unit between June 2020 and December 2020, whose oxygen saturation (SpO
