Maintaining moderate versus lower PEEP after cardiac surgery: a propensity-scored matched analysis.
Article in BMC anesthesiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundSetting positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) at around 5 cm H
methodsThis is a single-center retrospective study involving patients receiving cardiac surgery from June 2022 to May 2023. Propensity-score matching (PSM) was used to balance the baseline differences. Primary outcomes were the duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU length of stay. Secondary outcomes included PaO
resultsA total of 334 patients were included in the study, 102 (31%) of them received moderate PEEP (≥ 7 cm H
conclusionIn selective cardiac surgical patients, using moderate PEEP compared with conventional lower PEEP in the early postoperative period correlated to better oxygenation, which may have potential for earlier liberation of mechanical ventilation.
