[Post-intensive care syndrome one month after hospital discharge of critical patients surviving COVID 19.]
Article in Medicina intensiva, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesincidence of post-intensive care syndrome at one month after hospital discharge in surviving critically ill COVID 19 patients and to identify associated factors.
designprospective cohort study.
settingtwo multipurpose critical care units of the Araba University Hospital.Patients admitted to critical care units for severe acute respiratory failure secondary to COVID 19.
interventionnone. VARIABLES OF INTEREST: demographic variables, length of stay, Charlson index, APACHE II, SOFA, days of mechanical ventilation, tracheotomy, delirium, tetraparesis of the critical patient, EuroQol 5D5L, Minimental Test.
resultsa deterioration in the EuroQol health index (HI) from 90.9 ± 16.9 to 70.9 ± 24.7 (p < 0.001) was observed. The impairment of the five EuroQol domains is: mobility (46.1%), usual activities (44.7%), discomfort/pain (30.7%), psychological domain (27.3%) and self-care (20.3%). The 61.5% suffer a significant decrease in their health index. Multivariate analysis by logistic regression shows us that delirium (OR= 3.01; 95%CI: 1.01-8.9; p= 0.047) and tracheostomy (OR= 2.37; 95%CI: 1.09-5.14; p= 0.029) show association with drop in EuroQoL 5D5L SI. The area under the ROC curve of the model is 67.3%, with a confidence interval between 58% and 76%. The model is calibrated using the Hosmer-Lemeshow test:(χ2=0.468; p=0.792). Only 1.2% of patients showed a score ≤ 24, clearly pathological, on the Folstein's Minimental Test.
conclusionsdelirium and need for tracheostomy are associated with post-intensive care syndrome assessed by EuroQol 5D5L.
