A Snapshot of Chronic Critical Illness in Pediatric Intensive Care Units.
Article in Journal of pediatric intensive care, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Children with chronic critical illness (CCI) represent the sickest subgroup of children with medical complexity. In this article, we applied a proposed definition of pediatric CCI to assess point prevalence in medical, cardiovascular, and combined pediatric intensive care units (PICUs), screening all patients admitted to six academic medical centers in the United States on May 17, 2017, for pediatric CCI (PCCI) eligibility. We gathered descriptive data to understand medical complexity and resource needs of children with PCCI in PICUs including data regarding hospitalization characteristics, previous admissions, medical technology, and chronic multiorgan dysfunction. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize the study population and hospital data. The study cohort was divided between PICU-prolonged (stay > 14 days) and PICU-exposed (any time in PICU); comparative analyses were conducted. On the study day, 185 children met inclusion criteria, 66 (36%) PICU-prolonged and 119 (64%) PICU-exposed. Nearly all had home medical technology and most (
