Ventilator settings and outcome of respiratory failure in paraquat-induced pulmonary injury.
Article in Scientific reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Paraquat is a nonselective contact herbicide that has significant importance in clinical toxicology due to its high mortality rate. The cause of mortality in the acute phase of poisoning is a multi-organ failure while in the sub-acute phase is alveolar injury and lung fibrosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the advantages and drawbacks of mechanical ventilation (MV) in paraquat-induced pulmonary injury and its consequential respiratory failure (PIPI-CRF). This retrospective descriptive analytical study was done to investigate the outcome of patients who had developed PIPI-CRF and underwent conventional treatments with invasive MV in three teaching hospitals in Shiraz, Iran, from March 2010 to February 2015. In total, 44 patients (mean age of 27.9 ± 9.98 years) had undergone MV due to PIPI-CRF. None of the patients had a successful wean off from the ventilator. Although all the patients' were on aggressive life support and full efforts to resuscitate were carried out in case of cardiac arrest, all of them expired. We suggest that in the case of conventional treatment of paraquat poisoning, only noninvasive ventilation should be applied. However, considering the chance of patient's survival performing novel treatments, such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), lung protective ventilation with optimal positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) could be applied only in such circumstances.
