Sleep Architecture in Mechanically Ventilated Pediatric ICU Patients Receiving Goal-Directed, Dexmedetomidine- and Opioid-based Sedation.
Article in Journal of pediatric intensive care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
This single-center prospective observational study aimed to evaluate sleep architecture in mechanically ventilated pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) patients receiving protocolized light sedation. We enrolled 18 children, 6 months to 17 years of age, receiving mechanical ventilation and standard, protocolized sedation for acute respiratory failure, and monitored them with 24 hours of limited (10 channels) polysomnogram (PSG). The PSG was scored by a sleep technician and reviewed by a pediatric sleep medicine physician. Sixteen children had adequate PSG data for sleep stage scoring. All received continuous opioid infusions, 15 (94%) received dexmedetomidine, and 7 (44%) received intermittent benzodiazepines. Total sleep time was above the age-matched normal reference range (median 867 vs. 641 minutes,
