Age‑adjusted Charlson comorbidity index and in‑hospital mortality in critically ill patients with cardiogenic shock: A retrospective cohort study.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Evidence regarding the relationship between age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (ACCI) and in-hospital mortality is limited. Therefore, the present study investigated whether there was an independent association between ACCI and in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) after adjusting for other covariates (age, sex, history of disease, scoring system, in-hospital management, vital signs at presentation, laboratory findings and vasopressors). ACCI, calculated retrospectively after hospitalization between 2008 and 2019, was derived from intensive care unit (ICU) admissions at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (Boston, MA, USA). Patients with CS were classified into two categories based on predefined ACCI scores (low, <8; high, ≥8). Based on baseline ACCI, the risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with CS was calculated using a multivariate Cox proportional risk model, and the threshold effect was calculated using a two-piece linear regression model. The in-hospital mortality rate was ~1.5 times greater in the ACCI high group compared with that in the ACCI low group [hazard ratio (HR)=1.45; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.14
