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

Introduction: Capnography aids assessment of the adequacy of mechanical patient ventilation. Physical and physiological changes in hyperbaric environments create ventilation challenges which make end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO Methods: We compared the EMMA capnograph to sidestream capnography and the gold standard arterial carbon dioxide blood gas analysis in a hyperbaric chamber. In 12 resting subjects breathing air at 284 kPa, we recorded ETCO Results: Across all measurements there was a difference of about 0.1 kPa between the EMMA and sidestream capnographs indicating a very slight over-estimation of ETCO Conclusions: In this study, the EMMA capnograph performed equally to the sidestream capnograph when compared directly, and both capnography measures gave clinically acceptable estimates of arterial PCO
