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

Mechanical ventilation (MV) is used to assist spontaneous breathing in critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). MV is a cornerstone of critical care medicine but it is now known that inspiratory muscle dysfunction due to injury, disuse, and/or atrophy during MV plays a major role in outcomes for these patients. For example, prolonged MV is strongly correlated with dysfunction of the sternocleidomastoid (SCM), an accessory inspiratory muscle that has been linked to weaning failure from MV. Hemodynamic monitoring of the SCM may provide an important non-invasive and real-time means to monitor MV. In this work, we first conducted multi-layer Monte Carlo simulations to confirm the ability of near infrared light to detect changes in the oxygenation of the SCM over wide ranges of skin tones and adipose layer thicknesses. We then optimized a custom digital frequency domain near-infrared spectroscopy (FD-NIRS) system for continuous 10 Hz measurements of the SCM at 730 nm and 850 nm. A healthy volunteer study was conducted (N=10); subjects performed sets of isometric neck flexions of the SCM. Substantial changes in oxyhemoglobin + oxymyoglobin (oxy[Hb + Mb]), deoxyhemoglobin + deoxymyoglobin (deoxy[Hb + Mb]), and total hemoglobin + myoglobin (total[Hb + Mb]) were observed during sustained and intermittent isometric flexions. There were notable sex differences observed in the magnitude of hemodynamic changes (∼2x larger changes in males for oxy[Hb + Mb] and deoxy[Hb + Mb]). The magnitude of hemodynamic changes when taking into account µ
