Risk factors associated with prolonged intensive care unit stay following surgery for total anomalous pulmonary venous connection: a retrospective study.
Article in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundProlonged intensive care unit (ICU) stays consume medical resources and increase medical costs. This study identified risk factors associated with prolonged postoperative intensive care unit (ICU) stay in children with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC).
methodsThe medical records of 85 patients who underwent surgical repair of TAPVC were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into prolonged-stay and standard-stay groups. The prolonged stay group included all patients who exceeded the 75th percentile of the ICU stay duration, and the standard stay group included all remaining patients. The effects of patient variables on ICU stay duration were investigated using univariate and logistic regression analyses.
resultsPatient median age was 41 (18-103) days, and median weight was 3.80 (3.30-5.35) kg.Postoperative duration of ICU stay was 11-68 days in the prolonged stay group (n = 23) and 2-10 days in the standard stay group (n = 62). Lower preoperative pulse oximetry saturation (SpO
