Pre-Admission Predictors of Walking Independence in Critically Ill Patients.
Article in Respiratory care, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundRecovery of walking independence in critically ill patients is required for safe discharge home. However, the pre-admission predictors affecting this outcome in this patient group are unknown. This study aimed to identify these predictors.
methodsWe included subjects who required mechanical ventilation for at least 48 h and could walk before admission. We investigated frailty, cognitive impairment, and malnutrition risk according to the pre-admission health status. Walking independence was defined as the ability to walk for at least 45 m on level ground. The primary outcome was the association between the time to event from an ICU discharge to walking independence, and pre-admission predictors were analyzed using a Fine-Gray proportional hazards regression.
resultsThe rate of walking independence was 38.0 (100 cases/person-month; sample
conclusionsPre-admission frailty or pre-frailty, cognitive impairment, and malnutrition risk can help predict walking independence in critically ill patients who require mechanical ventilation.
