Correlation of clinical and laboratory findings of dehydration with ultrasonographic measurements.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 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
objectivesTo assess bedside ultrasonographic readings in conjunction with laboratory and clinical results, as well as to look into the efficacy of these measurements while evaluating patients who are being monitored for dehydration and managing their therapy.
methodsWe assessed 300 patients, 150 of whom were in the case group and 150 in the control group. Laboratory results throughout therapy, clinical dehydration, vital signs, and bedside ultrasonography results were all documented. A vena cava inferior collapsibility index of 50% or higher, dry oral mucosa, decreased skin turgor, and a fresh onset of altered consciousness were all considered clinical indicators of dehydration.
resultsThere were statistically significant differences between the maximum and minimum values of the inferior vena cava diameter, inferior vena cava collapsibility index, optic nerve sheath diameters in both eyes, and transverse and anteroposterior diameters in the clinical dehydration group (
conclusionOptic nerve sheath, transverse, and anteroposterior diameter measurements from ocular ultrasonographic evaluations correlated with inferior vena cava ultrasonographic measurements and can be used in appropriate patients.
