Interpretation of Lung Ultrasound in POCUS.
Review in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 point-of-care-ultrasound (POCUS) has emerged as a valuable tool for bedside imaging in the emergency and critical care setting. Over the past decade, it has been increasingly used to evaluate not only children with pulmonary conditions but also to guide decision-making regarding fluid management, weaning, and extubation, etc. In trained hands, this modality is comparable, or even superior to chest radiography for selected conditions, while significantly reducing radiation exposure. The integration of lung POCUS into routine pediatric critical care has the potential to improve diagnostic efficiency and patient safety when used as an adjunct to clinical assessment. This narrative review summarizes the basic principles of lung POCUS, key findings in common respiratory problems in critically ill children, and its clinical applications along with limitations.
