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

backgroundOur aim in this observational prospective study is to determine whether the prone position has an effect on intracranial pressure, by performing ultrasound-guided ONSD (Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter) measurements in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) ventilated in the prone position.

methodsPatients hospitalized in the intensive care unit with a diagnosis of ARDS who were placed in the prone position for 24 h during their treatment were included in the study. Standardized sedation and neuromuscular blockade were applied to all patients in the prone position. Mechanical ventilation settings were standardized. Demographic data and patients' pCO

resultsThe evaluation of 24-hour prone-position data of patients with ARDS showed no significant increase in ONSD. There was no significant difference in pCO

conclusionAs a result of this study, it appears that the prone position does not increase intracranial pressure during the first 24 h and can be safely utilized, given the administration of appropriate sedation, neuromuscular blockade, and mechanical ventilation strategy. ONSD measurements may increase the safety of monitoring in patients ventilated in the prone position.
