Incidence of Mechanical Ventilation Adverse Events in Critically Ill Children in a Tertiary Pediatric Intensive Care Unit.
Article in Turkish thoracic journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveDespite the clinical use of mechanical ventilation having well-documented benefits, it can be associated with complica- tions and adverse physiological effects that can impact mortality rates. There are few studies that examine complications associated with mechanical ventilation in children and the factors associated with complications in detail. This study aimed to investigate adverse events associated with mechanical ventilation in pediatric patients and to compare the epidemiology of complications associated with mechanical ventilation. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe medical records of patients in a tertiary care pediatric intensive care unit who were mechanically ventilated between January 1, 2013, and July 31, 2017, were evaluated.
resultsA total of 187 patients were included in the study, 105 boys (56.1%) and 82 girls (43.9%), and 45 (24.1%) patients experienced complications. The total number of mechanical ventilation days was 1100. Atelectasis (12.3%), post-extubation stridor (8.5%), ventilator- associated pneumonia (5.4%), and pneumothorax (5.4%) were most commonly observed complications.
conclusionComplications of mechanical ventilation in the pediatric population still occur frequently. In this study, the incidence of atelectasis was high, and also, incidences of ventilator-associated pneumonia and pneumothorax were low.
