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

objectiveThe present study examined the association between early rehabilitation for mechanically ventilated intensive care unit (ICU) patients and oral ingestion.

methodAmong 1055 consecutive patients who were transported to the study facility via ambulance, newly admitted to the ICU, and treated with rehabilitation during hospitalization, 234 were included in the current study. The patients were allocated to early rehabilitation and control groups to retrospectively examine the proportion able to orally ingest three meals per day, the period needed to achieve such independence, and course-related factors.

resultsA total of 77 matched pairs were selected using propensity score matching. Analysis using the Kaplan-Meier estimator revealed that the early rehabilitation group needed a markedly shorter period to achieve oral ingestion of three meals per day. There were significant differences between the groups in the periods from hospital admission to first physical therapy and to mobilization as well as differences in the frequency of delirium.

conclusionEarly rehabilitation for mechanically ventilated ICU patients may facilitate earlier mobilization. It may also shorten the period needed to achieve oral ingestion of three meals per day by preventing complications such as delirium.
