High-Frequency Percussive Ventilation in Viral Bronchiolitis.
Article in Respiratory care, 2022. 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
backgroundHigh-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) is an alternative mode of mechanical ventilation that has been shown to improve gas exchange in subjects with severe respiratory failure. We hypothesized that HFPV use would improve ventilation and oxygenation in intubated children with acute bronchiolitis.
methodsIn this single-center prospective cohort study we included mechanically ventilated children in the pediatric ICU with bronchiolitis 1-24 months old who were transitioned to HFPV from conventional invasive mechanical ventilation from November 2018-April 2020. Patients with congenital heart disease, on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and with HFPV duration < 12 h were excluded. Subject gas exchange metrics and ventilator parameters were compared before and after HFPV initiation.
resultsForty-one of 192 (21%) patients intubated with bronchiolitis underwent HFPV, and 35 met inclusion criteria. Median age of cohort was 4 months, and 60% were previously healthy. All subjects with available oxygenation saturation index (OSI) measurements pre-HFPV met pediatric ARDS criteria (31/35, 89%). Mean CO
conclusionsHFPV was associated with significant improvement in ventilation and decreased exposure to high PIPs for mechanically ventilated children with bronchiolitis in our cohort and had a potential association with improved oxygenation. Our study shows that HFPV may be an effective alternative mode of ventilation in patients with bronchiolitis who have poor gas exchange on conventional invasive mechanical ventilation.
