Correlation Between the Ratio of Oxygen Saturation to Fraction of Inspired Oxygen and the Ratio of Partial Pressure of Oxygen to Fraction of Inspired Oxygen in Detection and Risk Stratification of Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveTo measure the correlation between the ratio of oxygen saturation to fraction of inspired oxygen [SpO METHODOLOGY: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU), National Institute of Child Health (NICH), Karachi, a tertiary care government hospital, from November 2020 to July 2021. One hundred twenty children (of either gender) having the age range of 2 months to 16 years, admitted to PICU with acute onset of respiratory distress, were included in the study. We measured SpO
resultsA total of 120 children were included, the mean age was 40.58±38.88 months and 67 (55.8%) were males. The mean FiO
conclusionThis study has shown that there is a strong correlation between the SF and PF ratios, and a statistically substantial agreement has been observed.
