Lung Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) in Cardiorespiratory Physiotherapy and Respiratory Therapy Practices: Current Status and Future Directions.
Article in POCUS journal, 2024. 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
Lung Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) strongly influences physiotherapy and respiratory therapy clinical decision-making in the intensive care unit (ICU). The uptake of Lung POCUS training by physiotherapists and respiratory therapists is low in some countries, often due to many barriers to its implementation. The safe and appropriate integration of Lung POCUS into physiotherapy and respiratory therapy clinical practice may be achieved by various means. This article describes the pathway for physiotherapists to become Lung POCUS-accredited in Australia, focusing on a novel fast-track approach that may apply internationally and in other professions, such as respiratory therapy. While a fast-track approach is resource intensive, such resource allocation may be justified to support the growth of Lung POCUS in physiotherapy and respiratory therapy practice where mentor support may be inconsistent, lacking, or absent.
