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

backgroundLung transplantation is considered an effective method for treating patients with end-stage coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The nurses play a pivotal role in lung transplantation for COVID-19 patients. CASE SUMMARY: Two elderly patients were admitted to the emergency department due to cough, and the nucleic acid test was positive. The patients were preliminarily diagnosed with COVID-19. The chest computed tomography scan revealed massive lung consolidation, and the patients did not improve after treatment with antiviral drugs, glucocorticoids, antibiotics, and other drugs. Under the support of pure oxygen in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, the patients' oxygen levels were still poor, indicating that they were in the terminal stage of viral pneumonia. The patients underwent double-lung transplantation and received intraoperative care. The extracorporeal membrane oxygenation device was removed within a week of the surgical procedure, and the respiratory circulation of the patients were stabilized.

conclusionHigh-quality care for COVID-19 patients undergoing lung transplantation ensures patient safety during operation while protecting the safety of the medical staff.
