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

Background: The optimal timing of intubation has been debated among healthcare professionals, current studies do not show any differences between early and late intubation. most studies failed to show any significant difference in clinical outcomes between early or late intubation. Methods: The study was conducted as a retrospective review of subjects with confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 admitted to the Dubai Hospital intensive care unit (ICU). Study variables included time to intubation, duration of supplemental oxygen requirement >15 L/min, and cumulative duration of tachypnea and tachycardia while on the aforementioned oxygen requirement on this oxygen usage level. Each time duration was assessed for correlation with clinical variables including mortality and length of stay in ICU and hospital. Results: Subjects who require endotracheal intubation within 4 h after the start of oxygen >15 L/min have lower survival ( Conclusions: Subjects who require endotracheal intubation within 4 h after the start of oxygen >15 L/min have lower survival. The optimal time for intubation is after tachypnea of 6 h but before 19.5 h. No duration of tachycardia has any significant effect on survival. Only the duration of invasive MV correlated with the hospital length of stay.
