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

The aim of this study was to determine whether the late failure of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is associated with mortality in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This multicenter study included seven university-affiliated hospitals in the Republic of Korea. We collected the data of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 between 10 February 2020 and 28 February 2021. Failure of HFNC was defined as the need for mechanical ventilation despite HFNC application. According to the time of intubation, HFNC failure was divided into early failure (within 48 h) and late failure (after 48 h). During the study period, 157 patients received HFNC and 133 were eligible. Among them, 70 received mechanical ventilation. The median time from HFNC initiation to intubation of the early failure group was 4.1 h (interquartile range [IQR]: 1.1-13.5 h), and that of the late failure group was 70.9 h (IQR: 54.4-145.4 h). Although the ratio of pulse oximetry/fraction of inspired oxygen (ROX index) within 24 h of HFNC initiation tended to be lower in the early failure group than in the late failure group, the ROX index before two hours of intubation was significantly lower in the late failure group (odds ratio [OR], 5.74 [IQR: 4.58-6.98] vs. 4.80 [IQR: 3.67-5.97],
