Lung ultrasound for the diagnosis of subpleural consolidations - a review of the veterinary and human literature.
Review in Acta veterinaria Scandinavica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Lung ultrasound (LUS) is an imaging modality of growing importance in human medicine. LUS has been extensively applied to human patients. Guidelines have been created for internal medicine, describing ultrasonographic features of various lung pathologic processes. Such guidelines do not exist for veterinary medicine, and studies on the utility of LUS in companion animals are limited. Therefore, this review compares conclusions from veterinary studies to recommendations in human medicine for the detection of subpleural consolidations beyond the application of LUS as a point-of-care modality in emergency and critical care.
