The effect of driving pressures in COVID-19 ARDS: Lower may still be better as in classic ARDS.
Article in Respiratory investigation, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundThe respiratory dynamics of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients under invasive ventilation are still not well known. In this prospective cohort, we aimed to assess the characteristics of the respiratory system in COVID-19 patients under invasive mechanical ventilation and evaluate their relationship with mortality.
methodsFifty-eight COVID-19 patients who underwent invasive mechanical ventilation between March 11, 2020 and September 1, 2020 were enrolled for the present study. Demographics and laboratory values at baseline were recorded. Respiratory variables such as tidal volume, plateau pressure, positive end expiratory pressure, static compliance, and driving pressure were recorded daily under passive conditions. Further, the median values were analyzed.
resultsMedian age of the patients was 64 years (58-72). Mortality was 60% on day 28. Plateau pressure, driving pressure, and static compliance significantly differ between the survivors and non-survivors. When patients were categorized into two groups based on the median driving pressure (Pdrive) of ≤15 cmH
conclusionCOVID-19 related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) seemed to have similar characteristics as other forms of ARDS. Lung protective ventilation with low plateau and driving pressures might be related to lower mortality.
