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

Weaning from mechanical ventilation is generally not the most urgent topic on many ICUs, because acutely endangered patients are usually the staff's main focus. Nevertheless, even these patients whose underlying problem has been mostly solved-whether it was neurologic, internal or surgical-are in need of a structured weaning strategy. The aim of this weaning "road map" is ventilator independence, decannulation and regaining of muscular strength. Achieving of these aims needs a well-educated team of physicians, nurses, respiratory/physical therapists, logopedists and pychologists. Assessment of patient health status, including respiratory muscle function must be part of the overtaking procedure to be able to focus on the main problem that may be causative for the inability to wean so far. Every weaning unit must be able to organize the future treatment of patients (different ward inside the hospital, rehabilitation) or the transfer into a (ventilated) home care situation.
