Long Stay and Frequent Readmission in the Pediatric Intensive Care in The Netherlands; 15-Year Time Trends.
Article in Critical care explorations, 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
To describe time trends and the burden of long-stay patients (LSP) and frequent-readmission patients (FRP) in the PICUs in The Netherlands.
designRetrospective analysis of data from the nationwide Pediatric Intensive Care Evaluation registry including all PICU admissions in The Netherlands.
settingAll PICUs in The Netherlands. PATIENTS: All PICU patients less than 18 years old admitted between 2003 and 2017. Two groups of patients were identified: LSP (admitted ≥30 d) and FRP (≥3 readmissions within the first year after their first admission).
interventionsNone. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN
resultsA total of 47,424 children were admitted on 59,759 occasions. LSP (3.3% of total cohort) and FRP (2.1%) accounted for 37.5% and 14.5% of cumulative admission days, respectively. Patients fulfilling both LSP and FRP criteria (0.6%) accounted for 9.9% of cumulative admission days. No significant time trends were observed between 2003 and 2017 for the number of LSP and FRP, nor for accounted cumulative admission days. Age and disease severity-adjusted mortality was significantly higher for LSP (odds ratio [OR], 2.16; 95% CI, 1.66-2.82;
conclusionsThe proportion of LSP and FRP and their burden on PICU capacity are considerable and remained constant between 2003 and 2017. Whereas age and disease severity-adjusted mortality decreased in the general PICU population, it did not change in LSP and FRP.
