Diagnosis and management of critical illness polyneuropathy and critical illness myopathy.
Article in Current treatment options in neurology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Newly acquired neuromuscular weakness commonly develops in the setting of critical illness. This weakness delays recovery and often causes prolonged ventilator dependence. An axonal sensory-motor polyneuropathy, critical illness polyneuropathy (CIP), is seen in up to a third of critically ill patients with the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (usually due to sepsis). As frequently, or more so, an acute myopathy, critical illness myopathy (CIM), develops in a similar setting, often in association with the use of corticosteroids and/or nondepolarizing neuromuscular-blocking agents. This paper reviews the clinical features, diagnostic approach, and treatment of CIP and CIM. There are no specific pharmacologic treatments for CIP or CIM, but recognizing the presence of one of these disorders often improves management. Prevention of CIP and CIM is feasible in part by avoiding risk factors and by aggressive medical management of critically ill patients. Intensive insulin therapy in intensive care unit patients appears to reduce the likelihood of developing CIP and/or CIM. Future treatments of sepsis may further reduce the incidence of these neuromuscular consequences of critical illness.
