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

objectiveThis study examined the risk factors in the early rehabilitation therapy of critically ill patients with weakness acquired in an intensive care unit and the impact of this therapy on walking independence after discharge from the hospital.

methodOf the 764 consecutive patients transported to the study facilities by ambulance, newly admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), and treated with rehabilitation during hospitalization, 88 were included in this study after eliminating those who met a detailed list of exclusion criteria. To retrospectively examine the rate of walking independence and the effect of differing durations of rehabilitation activity, the study patients were divided into two groups: those with ICU-acquired weakness (AW) and those without ICU-acquired weakness (non-ICU-AW) on discharge from the ICU.

resultsAnalysis using the Kaplan-Meier estimator revealed that the non-ICU-AW group needed a markedly shorter period to achieve walking independence. In terms of the rehabilitation activities performed in the ICU, both in-bed exercises and the total duration of rehabilitation activity were significantly shorter in the ICU-AW group than in the non-ICU-AW group.

conclusionThe two groups were compared, and the amount of daily activity time significantly influenced the quality of patient outcome.
