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

backgroundPathogenesis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) involves immune cell death and removal from the injured lungs. ARDS severity is related to lung compliance. However, the correlation between the respiratory mechanics and alveolar immune cell death in patients with ARDS remains unclear.

methodsTwenty-four patients with respiratory failure and ARDS were enrolled in the intensive care unit between November 2019 and November 2021. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and cell death of lymphocytes and monocytes in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were detected on days 1 and 8.

resultsLung compliance was positively correlated with the cell death percentage of alveolar CD4/CD8 lymphocytes and monocytes on day 8 (Pearson's correlation coefficient (r) = 0.554, p = 0.005; r = 0.422, p = 0.040; r = 0.569, p = 0.004, respectively). There was no association between lung compliance and the percentage of alveolar NETs on days 1 and 8. The cell death percentages of alveolar CD4/CD8 lymphocytes and monocytes were negatively correlated with driving pressure (DP) on days 1 (r = - 0.440, p = 0.032; r = - 0.613, p = 0.001; r = -0.557, p = 0.005, respectively) and 8 (r = - 0.459, p = 0.024; r = - 0.407, p = 0.048; r = - 0.607, p = 0.002, respectively). The cell death percentages of alveolar CD4/CD8 lymphocytes and monocytes were also negatively correlated with mechanical power (MP) on days 1 (r = - 0.558, p = 0.005; r = - 0.593, p = 0.002; r = - 0.571, p = 0.004, respectively) and 8 (r = - 0.539, p = 0.007; r = - 0.338, p = 0.107; r = - 0.649, p < 0.001, respectively). The percentage of alveolar NETs on days 1 and 8 was not associated with DP or MP.

conclusionPatients with higher cell death rates of alveolar CD4/CD8 lymphocytes and monocytes exhibited lower DP and MP. Patients with less cell death of alveolar CD4/CD8 lymphocytes and monocytes required more DP or MP to maintain adequate ventilation.
