1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In addition to intensive care medicine, focused transesophageal echocardiography (fTEE) is increasingly being used in emergency departments. fTEE should only be performed as part of advanced cardiopulmonary resuscitation or in cases of unclear shock if a particular issue cannot be clarified using focused transthoracic echocardiography (cardiac point-of-care ultrasound [cPOCUS]). The conditions, indications and performance of fTEE are summarized in this consensus paper in terms of quality management in echocardiography in clinical acute and emergency medicine.
