Outcomes of patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage admitted to Australian and New Zealand intensive care units following a cardiac arrest.

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.
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
objectivesTo describe the characteristics and outcomes of adults with a subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) admitted to Australian and New Zealand intensive care units (ICUs) with a cardiac arrest in the preceding 24 hours.
designRetrospective cohort study.
settingStudy data from 144 Australian and New Zealand ICUs were obtained from the Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care Society Centre for Outcome and Resource Evaluation Adult Patient Database.
participantsA total of 439 of 11 047 (3.9%) patients admitted to an ICU with a SAH had a documented cardiac arrest in the 24 hours preceding their ICU admission. The mean age of patients with SAH and a preceding cardiac arrest was 55.3 years (SD, 13.7) and 251 of 439 (57.2%) were female.
main outcome measuresThe primary outcome of interest was in-hospital mortality. Key secondary outcomes were ICU mortality, ICU and hospital lengths of stay, the proportion of patients discharged home.
resultsSAH patients with a history of cardiac arrest preceding ICU admission had a higher mortality rate (81.5%
conclusionsAlmost one in five SAH patients who had a documented cardiac arrest in the 24 hours preceding ICU admission to an Australian and New Zealand ICU survived to hospital discharge, with around a quarter of these survivors discharged home. The neurological outcomes of these patients are uncertain, and understanding the burden of disability in survivors is an important area for further research.
