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

objectivesPatients after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) require a stay in the ICU postoperatively. This study aimed to investigate the incidence of prolonged length of stay (LOS) in the ICU after cardiac surgery with CPB and identify associated risk factors.

methodsThe current investigation was an observational, retrospective study that included 395 ICU patients who underwent cardiac surgery with CPB at a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou from June 2015 to June 2017. Data were obtained from the hospital database. Binary logistic regression modeling was used to analyze risk factors for prolonged ICU LOS.

resultsOf 395 patients, 137 (34.7%) had a prolonged ICU LOS (>72.0 h), and the median ICU LOS was 50.9 h. Several variables were found associated with prolonged ICU LOS: duration of CPB, prolonged mechanical ventilation and non-invasive assisted ventilation use, PaO

conclusionsThese findings are clinically relevant for identifying patients with an estimated prolonged ICU LOS, enabling clinicians to facilitate earlier intervention to reduce the risk and prevent resulting delayed recovery.
