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.

Abstract

Background Extubation has always been a critical aspect of anaesthesia. Guidelines and recommendations are in place for achieving successful extubation, but the risk of failure always persists. Through this study, we assess whether arterial blood gas (ABG) values taken intraoperatively help predict extubation success in the operation theatre. Materials and methods This was a prospective observational study for one year of extubated patients whose blood gas values were not within the normal range. The patients of age 18 years and above undergoing high-risk elective and emergency surgeries where at least one intraoperative arterial blood sample was taken for blood gas analysis were included. Apart from parameters of ABG demographic data, urgency and duration of surgery, blood loss, urine output, use of intraoperative fluid(s), and blood product(s) were also observed.  Results Of 578 patients enrolled, 116 patients were extubated based on the predefined extubation criteria. Of these, 24 patients were reintubated within 24 hours. ABG parameters such as partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO
