Factors Influencing Prolonged Intensive Care Unit Length of Stay after Craniotomy for Intracranial Tumor in Children: A 10-year Analysis from a University Hospital.

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
Background: Postoperative intensive care unit (ICU) admission is routinely practiced in pediatric and adult craniotomy. This study aims to identify the factors associated with an ICU stay of more than one day (prolonged ICU stay, PIS) after pediatric brain tumor surgery. Methods: Medical records of children who underwent craniotomy for brain tumor during a 10-year period were reviewed and analyzed. Perioperative variables were examined and compared between the one-day ICU stay (ODIS) and PIS groups. Results: A total of 314 craniotomies performed on 302 patients was included. Patients requiring postoperative ICU care for more than a day represented 37.9% of the sample. Significant factors found in the multivariate analysis affecting prolonged ICU length of stay included operative time ≥360 minutes (adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 2.438; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.223-4.861; Conclusion: While most children undergoing a craniotomy for brain tumor need a postoperative ICU care of ≤1 day, slightly more than a one-third in our study stayed longer. The prediction of a PIS can be beneficial for optimal resource utilization, increasing ICU bed turnover rate, reduction of operation cancellation, and improved preparation for parent expectations.
