Large open access database of echocardiogram reports in intensive care unit patients.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. 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
The EchoNotes Structured Database derived from MIMIC-III (ECHO-NOTE2NUM) is a structured echocardiogram database derived from 43,472 observational notes obtained during echocardiogram studies conducted in the intensive care unit at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center between 2001 and 2012. The database encompasses various aspects of cardiac structure and function, including cavity size, wall thickness, systolic and diastolic function, valve regurgitation and stenosis, as well as pulmonary pressures. To facilitate extensive data analysis, the clinical notes were transformed into a structured numerical format. Within each echocardiogram report sentence, specific words or phrases were identified to describe abnormal findings, and a severity staging system using numeric categories was established. This large publicly accessible database of structured echocardiogram data holds significant potential as a tool to investigate cardiovascular disease in the intensive care unit and as a reference point for future note-based structured databases. Moreover, its structured nature allows for easy integration with other data types in MIMIC, such as images or vital signs, enabling large-scale data analysis and further advancements in this field.
