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

Bag-valve-mask is a device that manually provides positive oxygen pressure. The grip technique of the character E and C shape is recommended to carry out this effectively. However, when applying this method, the hand in which the direction of the EC technique should be performed and the degree of adhesion pressure while performing the technique are unknown. This study aims to identify the factors influencing tidal volume and to determine the ideal sealing method between mask and face in the one-handed EC technique to optimize the Vt. A simulation study was conducted using a mechanical lung model in a scenario that resembled respiratory arrest. Multiple regression analyses identified high peak pressure, high left spot adhesion strength of the mask, and low right spot and bottom spot adhesion strength of the mask as significant factors. To provide an optimal Vt, it may be necessary to apply more strength to the left area of the mask when forming the "C" shape with the thumb and index finger of left hand using the one-handed EC technique.
