Proper Partial Pressure of Arterial Oxygen for Patients with Traumatic Brain Injury.

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
BACKGROUND The partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO₂) is critical to the outcome of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, it is not clear what range of PaO2 should be maintained to improve patient outcome. The aim of this study was to explore the PaO2 value needed in the acute phase of TBI and provide new evidence for clinical practice. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 153 patients with TBI were enrolled retrospectively. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted on sex, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score on admission, PaO₂ within 6 h of admission, oxygenation index, and other factors. The Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS) of the patient at discharge was used as an indicator of outcome. The good outcome group had GOS ≥4, and the poor outcome group had GOS <4. RESULTS The 153 patients were divided into a good outcome group (n=62) and poor outcome group (n=91). There was a significant difference in sex, admission GCS, surgery, airway status, PaO₂, and oxygen index within 6 h of admission between the 2 groups. Logistic regression analysis showed that PaO₂ <60 mmHg, male sex, and admission GCS score of 3 to 12 were independent risk factors for a poor outcome. CONCLUSIONS Patients with TBI having PaO₂ <60 mmHg within 6 h after admission were more likely to have poor outcomes. The upper limit value of PaO₂ that affects the outcome of TBI in patients has not been found.
