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

introductionAcute hypercapnic respiratory failure has a poor prognosis in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Recent data demonstrated a positive effect of nasal high-flow (NHF) in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. Preliminary data also show benefits in several hypercapnic chronic lung diseases.

objectivesThe aim of this study was to characterize flow-dependent changes in mean airway pressure, breathing volumes, and breathing frequency and decreases in PCO

methodsMean airway pressure was measured in the nasopharyngeal space. To evaluate breathing volumes, a polysomnographic device was used (16 patients). All subjects received 20, 30, 40, and 50 L/min and-to illustrate the effects-nCPAP and nBiPAP. Capillary blood gas analyses were performed in 25 hypercapnic ILD subjects before and 5 h after the use of NHF. Additionally, comfort and dyspnea during the use of NHF were surveyed.

resultsNHF resulted in a small flow-dependent increase in mean airway pressure. Tidal volume was unchanged and breathing rate decreased. The calculated minute volume decreased by 20 and 30 L/min NHF breathing. In spite of this fact, hypercapnia decreased at a flow rate of 24 L/min. Additionally, an improvement in dyspnea was observed.

conclusionsNHF leads to a reduction in paCO
