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

BACKGROUND High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is an alternative to conventional normobaric oxygen therapy (NBO) for hypoxemic patients. Since nothing is known about its effect on carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning, we hypothesized that HFNC might be a useful device in the treatment of CO poisoning victims. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who were admitted consecutively to the emergency department with CO intoxication. Patients were divided into 2 groups: patients treated with HFNC and patients treated with conventional face mask (CFM). Demographic data, pretreatment, and control (after 1 hour) arterial blood gas analyses values of the patients were evaluated. RESULTS Sixty-eight patients (mean age 35.8±18.7 years) were included in this study. NBO was given via HFNC to 38 patients (55.9%), and via CFM to 30 patients (44.1%). The demographic characteristics and pretreatment values of carboxy-hemoglobin (COHb) were similar in the 2 groups. The mean COHb value of the HFNC group at the first hour was found significantly lower than the CFM group: 9.5±4.7 and 12.0±5.1, respectively (P=0.041). Improvement of COHb level was significantly higher in the HFNC group compared to the CFM group: 12.5±4.5 versus 6.7±3.7, respectively (P=0.001). CONCLUSIONS HFNC was superior than CFM in alleviating COHb levels in the victims of CO poisoning. We believe that using HFNC will increase patient comfort by shortening the duration of treatment in emergency department settings, especially in patients who have mild clinical findings of CO poisoning.
