Update on the Value of Lung Ultrasound Examination in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Patients with Various Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction.
Review in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. 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
Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is one of the most common causes of hospital admission for cardiovascular diseases. ADHF often affects the elderly population, is associated with high morbidity, admission rate and mortality. Pulmonary congestion (PC) is the most common cause of hospitalization among ADHF patients. Previous studies have shown that lung ultrasound (LUS) serves as a valuable tool for the evaluation of PC in patients with heart failure in terms of diagnosis, guiding of the treatment, and post-discharge monitoring. The use of LUS for ADHF is well described and already widely used in the daily clinical practice. PC might differ in ADHF patients with different left ventricular ejection fraction value and treatment options should be steadily adjusted according to the LUS-derived PC results to improve the outcome. This review summarized the value of LUS examination in patients with ADHF with preserved, mildly reduced, and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, aiming to expand the rational use of LUS, promote the LUS-guided management and improve the outcome among patients with ADHF.
