Assessment of Risk Factors for Mortality in Patients in Medical Intensive Care Unit of a Tertiary Hospital.
Article in Indian journal of critical care medicine : peer-reviewed, official publication of Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundKnowing the risk factors for patients in intensive care units (ICUs) facilitates patient's management. The goal of this study was to determine the risk agents that influence our medical ICU mortality. PATIENTS AND
methodsThis 11-month retrospective trial was managed in the medical ICU. In this study, 340 patients who were followed up for at least 24 hours in ICUs were accepted. The clinical data on patients were recorded retrospectively, and the mortality-related factors were analyzed. A regression analysis was also performed to determine the independent risk factors for ICU mortality.
resultsThe median age was 73 (53-82) years. The death rate was 23.8%. Length of stay (LOS) in ICU was 3 (2-5) days, and APACHE-II (acute physiologic and chronic health evaluation) score was 19 (13-25). The prevalence of chronic diseases was not dissimilar except acute and chronic renal failures among survivors and deceased patients (
conclusionThe most significant risk agents of death were determined through high APACHE II score, decreased serum albumin levels, and increased creatinine levels.
