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 The aim of this study was to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of mechanical ventilation combined with fiberoptic bronchoalveolar lavage in patients with severe pulmonary infection. MATERIAL AND METHODS We randomly divided 81 patients with severe pulmonary infection into a control group (n=40) and an observation group (n=41). Both groups were treated using mechanical ventilation, and observation group additionally received assistive fiberoptic bronchoalveolar lavage. RESULTS The cure rate and effectiveness rate in the observation group were higher than in the control group (P<0.05, χ²=3.2), and the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05, χ²=9.4). The partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂) and oxygen saturation (SaO₂) were higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05, t=3.862, t=33.595), whereas the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO₂) and respiratory rate were lower in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05, t=3.307, t=5.043). The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-alpha), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-8 (IL-8) in the 2 groups were lower after treatment than before treatment (all P<0.05), and the levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Hospital stay, infection control window appearance time, invasive mechanical ventilation time, and total mechanical ventilation time in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group (P<0.05, t=13.990, t=8.643, t=9.717, t=8.980). CONCLUSIONS Mechanical ventilation combined with fiberoptic bronchoalveolar lavage can effectively improve the curative effects and the blood gas and inflammation indicators in patients.
