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

backgroundTo evaluate the effect of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) therapy on oxygenation and clinical outcomes in patients with refractory hypoxemia after surgical reconstruction for acute type A aortic dissection (TAAD).

methodsA before-and-after interventional study was conducted in patients with refractory hypoxemia after surgical reconstruction for TAAD. Postoperative refractory hypoxemia was defined as a persistent PaO

resultsFifty-three TAAD patients with refractory hypoxemia were enrolled in this study. Twenty-seven patients received conventional treatment (conventional group), while the remaining 26 patients received iNO therapy. The PaO

conclusionsiNO therapy might play an ameliorative role in patients with refractory hypoxemia after surgical reconstruction for TAAD. This therapy may lead to sustained improvement in oxygenation and reduce the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation.
