Diagnosis of a Right Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia in a Neonate with POCUS.
Article in POCUS journal, 2026. 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
Point of care ultrasound (POCUS) can be used to diagnose neonatal lung diseases, especially in the setting of a newborn with significant respiratory distress. A neonate was born at 38.4 weeks gestational age to a 36-year-old Gravida 5 Para 3013 woman with prenatal concerns for fetal cardiothoracic anomalies. Fetal echocardiogram demonstrated left atrial compression of unclear etiology. After delivery, the neonate experienced significant respiratory distress. A transthoracic echocardiogram revealed pulmonary hypertension but no structural heart disease. A lung POCUS exam revealed a homogenous echogenic structure within the right pleural cavity consistent with liver parenchyma. The initial diagnosis of right Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) was made and confirmed by a radiology-performed lung ultrasound and a computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest. This case demonstrated the utility of lung POCUS as an initial diagnostic tool in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for CDH.
