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

purposeWe investigated the prognostic accuracy of scores of SOFA for 90-day mortality in patients with kidney transplant status identified from the public Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III databank.

methodsA total of 428 participants with kidney transplant status who were admitted for the first time to the ICU were included. The target-independent and target-dependent variables were the SOFA scores in the first 3 days of ICU admission and 90-day mortality, respectively.

resultsFully adjusted binary logistic regression indicated that the day-2 and day-3 SOFA scores were positively associated with a risk of 90-day mortality after adjustment for confounders (odds ratio: 1.196, 95% confidence interval: 1.052-1.360; odds ratio: 1.233, 95% confidence interval: 1.062-1.432). The receiver operating characteristic curve showed areas under the curve for the prediction of 90-day mortality from SOFA scores on days 1, 2 and 3 were 0.524, 0.654, and 0.727, respectively. Further analysis using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and multivariate regression models of 90-day survival showed that patients with low SOFA scores survived longer than those with high scores.

conclusionThe SOFA scores in the early days of ICU admission were positively associated with 90-day outcomes although the first-day score showed no significant correlation.
