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

backgroundReverse triggered breath (RTB) has been extensively described during assisted-controlled modes of ventilation. We aimed to assess whether RTB occurs during Pressure Support Ventilation (PSV) and Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) at varying depths of propofol sedation.

methodsThis is a retrospective analysis of a prospective crossover randomized controlled trial conducted in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of a university hospital. Fourteen intubated patients for acute respiratory failure received six trials of 25 minutes randomly applying PSV and NAVA at three different propofol infusions: awake, light, and deep sedation. We assessed the occurrence of RTBs at each protocol step. The incidence level of RTBs was determined through the RTB index, which was calculated by dividing RTBs by the total number of breaths triggered and not triggered.

resultsRTBs occurred during both PSV and NAVA. The RTB index was greater during PSV than during NAVA at mild (1.5 [0.0; 5.3]% vs. 0.6 [0.0; 1.1]%) and deep (5.9 [0.7; 9.0]% vs. 1.7 [0.9; 3.5]%) sedation.

conclusionsRTB occurs in patients undergoing assisted mechanical ventilation. The level of propofol sedation and the mode of ventilation may influence the incidence of RTBs.
