Surfactant Protein D Is Associated With Severe Pediatric ARDS, Prolonged Ventilation, and Death in Children With Acute Respiratory Failure.
Article in Chest, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00814099 (Sedation Management in Pediatric Patients With Acute Respiratory Failure), which is not on this map. Cited by 29 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.

Abstract
backgroundElevated surfactant protein D (SP-D) is a relatively specific indicator of lung injury and is associated with both acute and chronic lung disease in adults and respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants. The relationship between plasma SP-D and lung injury in children with acute respiratory failure is unclear. RESEARCH QUESTION: Is plasma SP-D associated with lung injury or outcome in children with acute respiratory failure? STUDY DESIGN AND
methodsThis was a prospective cohort study in children 2 weeks to 17 years of age with acute respiratory failure who participated in the BALI multi-center study. Analyses were done using SP-D levels in plasma from the first sample taken on either the day of intubation or one of the following 2 days. SP-D level was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
resultsPlasma samples from 350 patients were used in the analysis; 233 had pediatric ARDS (PARDS). SP-D levels varied across primary diagnoses (P < .001). Elevated SP-D levels were associated with severe PARDS after adjusting for age, pediatric risk of mortality III (PRISM-III), and primary diagnosis (OR = 1.02; CI = 1.01-1.04; P = .011). Multivariable analyses also indicated that elevated SP-D levels were associated with death (OR = 1.02; CI = 1.01-1.04; P = .004), duration of mechanical ventilation (P = .012), PICU length of stay (P = .019), and highest oxygenation index (P = .040). SP-D levels also correlated with age (r
interpretationElevated plasma SP-D levels are associated with severe PARDS and poor outcomes in children with acute respiratory failure. Future studies will determine whether SP-D can be used to predict the degree of lung injury or response to treatment and whether SP-D is useful in identifying PARDS endotypes.
