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

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the key nursing factors associated with ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in critical care patients. Methods: Through the quality control platform of Hebei Province, questionnaires were sent to intensive care nurses in 32 tertiary hospitals in Hebei Province, China to collect data concerning the incidence of VAP and the status of the nursing staff. All the data were analyzed using an independent Results: In terms of nursing, the incidence of VAP was affected by the differential nursing strategies. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the incidence of VAP was significantly associated with the following six variables: the ratio of nurses to beds ( Conclusion: The incidence of VAP is closely related to nursing factors. In terms of nursing human resources, even junior nurses (less experienced nurses) can play an essential role in reducing VAP. In addition, to reduce VAP, the number of patients that nurses are responsible for at night should be reduced as much as possible, and improving nursing qualifications.
