Multiorgan Ultrasound for the Diagnosis of Submassive Pulmonary Embolism in a Critically Ill Patient.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious condition associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Multiorgan ultrasound offers a non-invasive, bedside alternative to computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) for rapid diagnosis and management, particularly in critically ill patients. We present the case of a 68-year-old woman with a high intermediate risk pulmonary embolism (PE), with Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index (PESI) class IV, multimodal ultrasound identified right ventricular dysfunction, elevated pulmonary artery pressures, and extensive lower extremity deep vein thrombosis, guiding timely diagnosis and management. This case highlights the utility of multimodal ultrasound as a non-invasive, bedside available diagnostic tool that facilitates effective management, particularly in critically ill patients when conventional imaging is not feasible.
