Use of pressure-regulated volume control in the first 48 hours of hospitalization of mechanically ventilated patients with sepsis or septic shock, with or without ARDS.

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
purposeTo evaluate the impact of pressure-regulated volume control (PRVC/VC+) use on delivered tidal volumes in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or at risk for ARDS. MATERIALS AND
methodsRetrospective study of mechanically ventilated adult patients with severe sepsis or septic shock.
resultsA total of 272 patients were divided into patients with recognized ARDS, patients without ARDS, and patients with unrecognized ARDS. Over 90% of patients were ventilated with PRVC on admission, resulting in delivered tidal volumes significantly higher than set tidal volumes among all groups at all time points, even after ARDS recognition (
conclusionsUsing PRVC promotes augmented delivered tidal volumes, often in excess of 6 mL/kg ideal body weight. Correct recognition of ARDS and having pulmonary sepsis improves compliance with low-stretch protocol ventilation.
