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

Under laboratory conditions, it can be demonstrated within sufficient clinical accuracy that the base excess (BE, [mmol/l]) is independent of temperature. In any blood gas analyzer with temperature correction, the results are consistent with tonometry when measuring a sample of hypothermic equilibrated blood at 37 degrees C. Under clinical conditions, it is shown that there is practically no difference in the CO(2) partial pressure, irrespective of whether measured directly by capnometry (p(et)CO(2)) or obtained from arterial blood (p(a)CO(2)) in the blood gas analyzer after correction for the patient's temperature. Hence, the clinical recommendations for hypothermia are: correct artificial ventilation, preferably pCO(2) 40+/-5 mmHg, should be established by capnometry and controlled by temperature-corrected p(a)CO(2): metabolic changes should be diagnosed by temperature-independent BE: the temperature-corrected pH, if at all, should be used only for the diagnosis of acidosis or alkalosis.
