Lung ultrasound in cardiac rehabilitation: expert consensus on protocols, clinical use, and integration into patient management from the working group on cardiac rehabilitation and cardiovascular prevention of the Italian society of cardiology.
Review in Heart failure reviews, 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
Lung ultrasonography (LUS) is a reliable and reproducible tool across various clinical settings. Its high diagnostic accuracy, portability, and real-time imaging capabilities make it especially suitable for use in Emergency Departments, Intensive Care Units, and outpatient clinics. LUS has proven particularly effective in evaluating lung congestion. LUS also provides superior diagnostic accuracy for detecting pleural effusion and lung consolidations, offering real-time imaging with high spatial resolution and enabling precise monitoring throughout hospitalization. In the Cardiac Rehabilitation Unit, the routine use of LUS represents a reliable imaging modality for assessing patients with complex clinical conditions. In fact, early identification of lung congestion, pleural effusion, or lung consolidation in patients recovering from acute coronary syndrome, acute heart failure, or cardiac surgery is crucial for optimizing clinical management. Moreover, continuous monitoring of lung congestion can aid in the appropriate adjustment of diuretic therapy and exercise intensity. This review aims to present the latest evidence and recommendations for the use of LUS in the cardiac rehabilitation setting.
