Observational study in Critical care (London, England), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundIndirect calorimetry (IC) measurement is considered the gold standard for the assessment of resting energy expenditure (REE). It is based on the measurement of oxygen and carbon dioxide consumption (VO
methodsThis was a retrospective study conducted at the general intensive care unit of a single university-affiliated tertiary medical center. Patients included were invasively ventilated and their REE was measured by using IC. The respiratory quotients (RQs) were set at 0.8, 0.85, and 0.89. Data were collected from computerized patient files. REE obtained from the ventilator by using VCO
resultsMeasurements were obtained for 80 patients, and 497 REE-IC measurements were compared with REE-VCO
conclusionsThe level of agreement of REE obtained from VCO
