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

backgroundImmediate extubation (IE) following pediatric liver transplantation is being increasingly performed. The aim of this study was to characterize the rate of IE at our institution and identify recipient factors predictive of IE.

methodsAll pediatric liver transplants performed at our institution between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2020 were reviewed. Retransplants and multi-organ transplants were excluded. IE was defined as extubation in the operating room following transplant. Backward stepwise logistic regression at a p-value threshold of .05 was performed to identify variables associated with IE.

resultsIE was achieved in 58 (72%) of the 81 pediatric liver transplants. The IE cohort had significantly shorter ICU length of stay and overall hospital length of stay, though IE was not an independent predictor of posttransplant length of stay. Age <2 years, preoperative mechanical ventilation, and total intraoperative epinephrine and dopamine infusion requirements were significant, independent risk factors against IE. This multivariable model was highly predictive of IE (area under the curve = 0.89).

conclusionsWe describe the highest rate of IE postpediatric liver transplantation that has been reported to date and identified significant risk factors against successful IE.
