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

objectiveTo develop machine learning models predicting extubation failure in low birthweight neonates using large amounts of clinical data. STUDY

designRetrospective cohort study using MIMIC-III, a large single-center, open-source clinical dataset. Logistic regression and boosted-tree (XGBoost) models using demographics, medications, and vital sign and ventilatory data were developed to predict extubation failure, defined as reintubation within 7 days.

results1348 low birthweight (≤2500 g) neonates who received mechanical ventilation within the first 7 days were included, of which 350 (26%) failed a trial of extubation. The best-performing model was a boosted-tree model incorporating demographics, vital signs, ventilator parameters, and medications (AUROC 0.82). The most important features were birthweight, last FiO

conclusionsMachine learning models identified low birthweight ventilated neonates at risk for extubation failure. These models will need to be validated across multiple centers to determine generalizability of this tool.
