National Surveillance of Pediatric Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest in Korea: The 10-Year Trend From 2009 to 2018.
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundThis study reports trends in pediatric out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and factors affecting clinical outcomes by age group.
methodsWe identified 4,561 OHCA patients younger than 18 years between January 2009 and December 2018 in the Korean OHCA Registry. The patients were divided into four groups: group 1 (1 year or younger), group 2 (1 to 5 years), group 3 (6 to 12 years), and group 4 (13 to 17 years). The primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge, and the secondary outcomes were return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) at the emergency department (ED) and good neurological status at discharge. Multivariate logistic analyses were performed.
resultsThe incidence rate of pediatric OHCA in group 1 increased from 45.57 to 60.89 per 100,000 person-years, while that of the overall population decreased over the 10 years. The rates of ROSC at the ED, survival to hospital discharge, and good neurologic outcome were highest in group 4 (37.9%, 9.7%, 4.9%, respectively) and lowest in group 1 (28.3%, 7.1%, 3.2%). The positive factors for survival to discharge were event location of a public/commercial building or place of recreation, type of first responder, prehospital delivery of automated external defibrillator shock, initial shockable rhythm at the ED. The factors affecting survival outcomes differed by age group.
conclusionThis study reports comprehensive trends in pediatric OHCA in the Republic of Korea. Our findings imply that preventive methods for the targeted population should be customized by age group.
