Clinical Outcomes according to Timing to Non Invasive Ventilation Initiation in COPD Patients with Acute Respiratory Failure: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Nighttime and non-working days are characterized by a shortage of dedicated staff and available resources. Previous studies have highlighted that patients admitted during the weekend had higher mortality than patients admitted on weekdays ("weekend effect"). However, most studies have focused on specific conditions and controversial results were reported. We conducted an observational, monocentric, retrospective cohort study, based on data collected prospectively to evaluate the impact of the timing of NIV initiation on clinical outcomes in COPD patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). A total of 266 patients requiring NIV with a time gap between diagnosis of ARF and NIV initiation <48 h were included. Interestingly, 39% of patients were not acidotic (pH = 7.38 ± 0.09 vs. 7.26 ± 0.05,
