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

backgroundThe National Early Warning Scores (NEWS) easily and objectively measures acute clinical deterioration. However, the performance of NEWS to predict mortality in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE) is still required. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of the NEWS in predicting the mortality of patients with APE.

methodsNEWS and Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index (PESI) at diagnosis time were calculated. Risk regression analysis was performed to identify the NEWS and PESI risk classification as a predictor for 30 days all-cause mortality and PE-related mortality.

resultsNEWS was significantly higher in non-survivors compared to survivors (median (IQR) was 10 (7, 11) vs. 7 (2, 9), respectively,

conclusionsThe NEWS can be used for mortality prediction in patients with APE. APE patients with NEWS ≥ 9 are associated with a high risk of mortality and should be closely monitored.
