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

Respiratory complications following spinal cord injury (SCI) have remained the leading cause of death across the lifespan and are one of the most common reasons for hospitalization. Complications from altered respiratory physiology after SCI include atelectasis, pneumonia, venous thromboembolic disease, and sleep-disordered breathing. The risk for complications is greater with higher SCI levels and severity, and mortality from pneumonia is heightened compared to the general population. Optimal primary care for individuals with SCI includes appropriate surveillance for SCI-specific respiratory disease, key preventive care including promotion of influenza immunization and respiratory muscle training, and early identification and treatment of pneumonia with institution of aggressive secretion management strategies. The respiratory physiology and specific management of respiratory complications after SCI is reviewed.
