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

backgroundThe favorable effect of mild therapeutic hypothermia (MTH) on neurologic status as well as on overall survival was shown in several trials; however, MTH is not readily implemented in daily routine.

objectiveWe examined the effect of the implementation of MTH on neurologic outcome and overall survival in an emergency care hospital. STUDY DESIGN AND

methodsThe data of 68 patients between 09/2010 and 11/2011 who received MTH for 24 h at 33 °C after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) were compared with prospectively collected data from 180 patients before introduction of MTH (2001-2006). Survival and neurological status at discharge were determined using the Glasgow-Pittsburgh Cerebral Performance Categories (CPC).

resultsMTH raised the percentage of patients with a CPC score of 1 or 2 from 70 % to 85 %. Furthermore, survival increased from 47/180 (26 %) between 01/2000 and 01/2006 to 27/68 (40 %) between 09/2010 and 11/2011. DISCUSSION: Implementation of MTH leads to improved neurological status and overall survival after CPR.
