Factors Associated with Duration of Intercostal Chest Drainage in Patients with Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax and the Role of Pulmonary Rehabilitation.
Article in Open access emergency medicine : OAEM, 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
purposePrimary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) is an urgent/emergency condition. Treatment with intercostal chest drainage (ICD) is necessary, particularly in symptomatic patients or those with tension. A previous study found that systematic breathing exercise significantly reduced ICD duration when compared with controls. This study aimed to evaluate if pulmonary rehabilitation can reduce the duration of ICD treatment in patients with PSP. PATIENTS AND
methodsThis was a retrospective study of patients diagnosed with PSP treated with ICD. Duration of ICD treatment was recorded from patients' medical charts. Factors associated with ICD duration were calculated using linear regression analysis.
resultsThere were 66 patients who met the study criteria, with average (SD) age and body mass index of 31.68 (13.53) years and 20.94 (2.72) kg/m
conclusionPatients with a history of recurrent PSP or high systolic blood pressure at presentation may require longer ICD duration. Pulmonary rehabilitation was not associated with the duration of ICD treatment.
