Serum cholinesterase as a new nutritional indicator for predicting weaning failure in patients.
Article in Frontiers in 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
Aim: The objective of this study is to examine the correlation between patient serum cholinesterase (SCHE) concentration and weaning failure in the context of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), as well as to identify predictors of ventilator weaning failure. Additionally, this study investigates the potential relationship between SCHE and nutritional risk for developing more effective weaning strategies. Method: A retrospective observational study was conducted. The sample was collected from 227 patients with IMV over 48 h who underwent SBT before weaning. Relevant experimental samples and data collection were analyzed at the time of patient admission and before the initiation of the SBT. The correlation between SCHE and weaning failure was determined by multifactorial logistic regression and propensity matching scores. Results: Weaning was successful in 127 patients and failed in 100 patients. Depending on the difficulty of weaning, 55 of these patients had difficulty in weaning and 45 had long-term weaning. In the crude cohort, experimental data collected on the day of SBT showed that SCHE concentrations were higher in patients with successful weaning than in those with failed weaning (4,514 u/l vs. 3,190 u/l Conclusion: Our study revealed that the patients who experienced weaning failure exhibited lower SCHE values compared to those who successfully underwent weaning.
