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.

Abstract

purposeAirway closure is a interruption of communication between larger and smaller airways. The presence of airway closure during mechanical ventilation may lead to the overestimation of driving pressure (DP), introducing errors in the assessment of respiratory mechanics and in positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) setting on the ventilator. Patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) may exhibit the airway closure phenomenon, which can be easily diagnosed with a low-flow inflation. Prone positioning is a therapeutic manoeuver proven to reduce mortality in ARDS patients, and has been widely implemented also in patients requiring veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO). To date, the impact of prone positioning on changes in airway closure has not been described.

methodsWe present an image analysis of the pressure waveform during volume-controlled ventilation and low-flow inflations before and after prone positioning in an ARDS patient on VV ECMO.

resultsA high airway opening pressure level (23 cmH

conclusionProne positioning reduced airway closure in an ARDS patient on VV ECMO support.
