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

backgroundAssessing the neuromechanical coupling of inspiratory muscles during mechanical ventilation (MV) could reveal the physiological mechanism of MV failure. This study examined the respiratory neuromechanical characteristics between MV liberation success and failure.

methodsThis is an observational prospective study that included patients during their ventilator liberation process. Assessment of surface electromyography (sEMG) of inspiratory muscles, including the diaphragm and extra-diaphragmatic (scalene, sternocleidomastoid, and parasternal) muscles, was performed 15 minutes after the initiation of spontaneous breathing trials. Neuromechanical efficiency of the diaphragm (NME

resultsA total of 45 patients were enrolled and 28 were female (67%). The sample median age was 63 (IQR 47, 69) years old. One-third of patients failed MV liberation within 72 hours of their spontaneous breathing trials (SBTs). NME
