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 risk of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is increased in passive and active smokers after blunt trauma. However, the mechanisms responsible, including the role of platelet aggregation, for this association are unknown.

methodsWe analyzed 215 patients with severe blunt trauma from a prospective observational cohort at a Level I trauma center between 2010 and 2015. Subjects underwent impedance-based platelet aggregometry in response to platelet agonists arachidonic acid, adenosine diphosphate, collagen, and thrombin receptor activating peptide-6. Acute respiratory distress syndrome within the first 8 days of admission was adjudicated using Berlin criteria. Plasma cotinine was measured to assess cigarette smoke exposure. Regression analyses were used to assess the relationship between (1) platelet aggregation and ARDS and (2) cigarette smoke exposure and platelet aggregation.

resultsAt both 0 hour and 24 hours, impaired platelet aggregation was associated with increased odds of developing ARDS. Cigarette smoke exposure was associated with increased platelet aggregation upon arrival to the emergency department. However, at 24 hours, cigarette smoke exposure was associated with increased impairment in platelet aggregation, reflecting a statistically significant decline in platelet aggregation over the initial 24 hours after trauma. The relationship between this decline in platelet aggregation and ARDS differed by cigarette smoke exposure status, suggesting that impaired platelet activation differentially affects the risk of ARDS in those with cigarette smoke exposure (arachidonic acid, p for interaction: 0.005, collagen p for interaction: 0.02, adenosine diphosphate, p for interaction: 0.05).

conclusionImpaired platelet aggregation at 0 hour and 24 hours is associated with an increased risk of developing ARDS after severe blunt trauma. Cigarette smoke-exposed patients are more likely to develop impaired platelet aggregation over the first 24 hours of admission, which may contribute to their increased risk of ARDS. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Prognostic/Epidemiological, level III.
