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

aimSivelestat sodium, a selective neutrophil elastase inhibitor, is the only commercially available, specific therapy for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS); however, its clinical efficacy is controversial. We aimed to evaluate appropriate indications for its use in ARDS.

methodsWe studied 66 patients with ARDS who were treated with sivelestat sodium. They were divided into survivors (

resultsPatients' backgrounds evaluated with the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score and the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score were significantly different between both groups (survivors versus non-survivors: APACHE II score, 14.7 ± 6.7 versus 20.5 ± 4.7,

conclusionAn APACHE II score ≤18, and a PaO
