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

backgroundWe studied the occurrence of intraoperative tidal alveolar recruitment/derecruitment, exhaled nitric oxide (eNO), and lung dysfunction in patients with and without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

methodsWe performed a prospective observational physiological study at a university hospital. Respiratory mechanics, shunt, and eNO were assessed in moderate COPD patients undergoing on-pump (n = 12) and off-pump (n = 8) CABG and on-pump controls (n = 8) before sternotomy (baseline), after sternotomy and before cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and following CPB before and after chest closure. Respiratory system resistance (R (rs)), elastance (E (rs)), and stress index (to quantify tidal recruitment) were estimated using regression analysis. eNO was measured with chemiluminescence.

resultsMechanical evidence of tidal recruitment/derecruitment (stress index <1.0) was observed in all patients, with stress index <0.8 in 29% of measurements. Rrs in on-pump COPD was larger than in controls (p < 0.05). Ers increased in controls from baseline to end of surgery (19.4 ± 5.5 to 27.0 ± 8.5 ml cm H(2)O(-1), p < 0.01), associated with increased shunt (p < 0.05). Neither Ers nor shunt increased significantly in the COPD on-pump group. eNO was comparable in the control (11.7 ± 7.0 ppb) and COPD on-pump (9.9 ± 6.8 ppb) groups at baseline, and decreased similarly by 29% at end of surgery(p < 0.05). Changes in eNO were not correlated to changes in lung function.

conclusionsTidal recruitment/derecruitment occurs frequently during CABG and represents a risk for ventilator-associated lung injury. eNO changes are consistent with small airway injury, including that from tidal recruitment injury. However, those changes are not correlated with respiratory dysfunction. Controls have higher susceptibility to develop complete lung derecruitment.
