Prognostic and diagnostic value of plasma soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 concentrations in acute respiratory distress syndrome.

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
objectivesSoluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 is a biomarker of myocardial strain and inflammation. The characteristics of acute respiratory distress syndrome include inflammation and cardiovascular dysfunction. We sought to determine whether plasma soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 concentration is associated with outcome and response to conservative fluid management and whether soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 concentration discriminates acute respiratory distress syndrome from decompensated heart failure.
designA retrospective analysis of the Fluid and Catheter Treatment Trial, a multi-center randomized controlled trial of conservative fluid management in the acute respiratory distress syndrome, as well as of a cohort of patients with decompensated heart failure.
settingTwenty acute care hospitals. PATIENTS: Eight hundred twenty-six patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome and 209 patients with acutely decompensated heart failure. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN
resultsNonsurvivors had higher day 0 (p < 0.0001) and day 3 (p < 0.0001) soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 concentrations. After adjustment for severity of illness, higher soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 concentration was associated with mortality, with odds ratioadj 1.47 (95% CI, 0.99-2.20; p = 0.06) at day 0, 2.94 (95% CI, 2.00-4.33; p < 0.0001) at day 3, and 3.63 (95% CI, 2.38-5.53; p < 0.0001) if soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 increased between days. Cumulative fluid balance was more positive among patients with higher day 0 (median, 5,212 mL [interquartile range, 200-12,284 mL] vs median, 2,020 mL [interquartile range, -2,034 to 7,091 mL]; p < 0.0001) and day 3 soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (median, 7,678 mL [interquartile range, 2,217-14,278 mL] vs median, 1,492 mL [interquartile range, -2,384 to 6,239 mL]; p < 0.0001). Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 showed excellent discriminative ability between the Fluid and Catheter Treatment Trial and heart failure populations (area under receiver-operating characteristic curve = 0.98; p < 0.0001).
conclusionsHigher soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 concentrations are associated with worse outcome in acute respiratory distress syndrome and may have value for discriminating acute respiratory distress syndrome from heart failure.
