Ocular ultrasound: a clinical review for the medicine-trained intensivist.
Article in Breathe (Sheffield, England), 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
Ultrasound can be used as an adjunct by the medical intensivist to diagnose a wide range of pathology in the intensive care unit. Ocular ultrasound's strengths include accessibility, safety profile and familiarity for the intensivist. Estimation of intracranial pressure through optic nerve sheath diameter may be of particular utility. Other applications include its role as a tool in the creation of a differential diagnosis for vision loss both spontaneously and in trauma. Ocular ultrasound does not replace consultation with an ophthalmologist and/or neurologist, or other forms of advanced neuroimaging, but it does provide a quick and safe evaluation while the intensivist is deciding the best course for their patient's ocular complaint.
