Critical Care Ultrasound in Shock: A Comprehensive Review of Ultrasound Protocol for Hemodynamic Assessment in the Intensive Care Unit.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. 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
Shock is a life-threatening condition that requires prompt recognition and treatment to prevent organ failure. In the intensive care unit, shock is a common presentation, and its management is challenging. Critical care ultrasound has emerged as a reliable and reproducible tool in diagnosing and classifying shock. This comprehensive review proposes an ultrasound-based protocol for the hemodynamic assessment of shock to guide its management in the ICU. The protocol classifies shock as either low or high cardiac index and differentiates obstructive, hypovolemic, cardiogenic, and distributive etiologies. In distributive shock, the protocol proposes a hemodynamic-based approach that considers the presence of dynamic obstruction, fluid responsiveness, fluid tolerance, and ventriculo-arterial coupling. The protocol gives value to quantitative measures based on critical care ultrasound to guide hemodynamic management. Using critical care ultrasound for a comprehensive hemodynamic assessment can help clinicians diagnose the etiology of shock and define the appropriate treatment while monitoring the response. The protocol's use in the ICU can facilitate prompt recognition, diagnosis, and management of shock, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
