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 study the risk factors associated with the need for mechanical ventilation in children with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS).
methodsThe medical data of 107 children with GBS were retrospectively reviewed. According to whether mechanical ventilation was required, the children were divided into a mechanical ventilation group with 16 children and a non-mechanical ventilation group with 91 children. The risk factors associated with the need for mechanical ventilation in children with GBS were identified by a multivariate logistic regression analysis.
resultsAmong the 107 children, 16 (15.0%) required mechanical ventilation. Compared with the non-mechanical ventilation group, the mechanical ventilation group had a significantly higher proportion of children with facial and/or bulbar muscle weakness, a significantly shorter duration from the onset to the peak of the disease, and a significantly higher Hughes Functional Grading Scale score at the first visit (
conclusionsFacial and/or bulbar muscle weakness and short duration from the onset to the peak of the disease may increase the risk of mechanical ventilation in children with GBS.
