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

During the recent COVID-19 pandemic, the rapidly progressive shortage of intravenous sedative drugs led numerous intensive care units to look for potential alternatives in patients requiring mechanical ventilation for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Inhalational sedation using the AnaConDa® device for sevoflurane administration is a possible option. In a 54-year-old COVID-19 patient with severe ARDS requiring extracorporeal membranous oxygenation (ECMO), sevoflurane on AnaConDa® device was administered for 8 days but was complicated by the development of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). Other causes of NDI or central diabetes insipidus were reasonably excluded, as in other previously published cases of NDI in ICU patients receiving prolonged sevoflurane-based sedation. In addition, the postmortem examination suggested a lower expression of aquaporin-2 in renal tubules. This observation should prompt further investigations to elucidate the role of aquaporin-2 in sevoflurane-related NDI. Inhaled isoflurane sedation is a possible alternative.
