Model-based Patient Matching for in-parallel Multiplexing Mechanical Ventilation Support.
Article in IFAC-PapersOnLine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Surges of COVID-19 infections could lead to insufficient supply of mechanical ventilators, and rationing of needed care. Multiplexing mechanical ventilators (co-MV) to serve multiple patients is a potential temporary solution. However, if patients are ventilated in parallel ventilation, there is currently no means to match ventilation requirements or patients, with no guidelines to date for co-MV. This research uses patient-specific clinically validated respiratory mechanics models to propose a method for patient matching and mechanical ventilator settings for two-patient co-MV under pressure control mode. The proposed method can simulate and estimate the resultant tidal volume of different combinations of co-ventilated patients. With both patients fulfilling the specified constraint under similar ventilation settings, the actual mechanical ventilator settings for co-MV are determined. This method allows clinicians to analyze in silico co-MV before clinical implementation.
