The "Old yet New" Echocardiographic Finding for Constrictive Pericarditis Following Purulent Pericarditis: A Case Report.
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
Purulent pericarditis (PP) is a localized infection of the pericardial cavity with suppuration that can be life-threatening. Treatment for PP consists of pericardial drainage and antimicrobial therapy. Constrictive pericarditis (CP), a form of diastolic heart failure that arises because an inelastic thickened pericardium, is a possible related dreadful complication of PP. Several echocardiographic findings suggestive of CP have been reported, but some require measurements or are difficult to reproduce. This case report presents a simple echocardiographic finding that reflects the clinical course of transient CP (TCP). A 76-year-old Japanese man presented to our hospital with chest pain and dyspnea. He was diagnosed with PP caused by
