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.

2 · The registry

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

BACKGROUND Cardiac arrest (CA) is a global public health challenge. This study explored the predictors of mortality and their interactions utilizing machine learning algorithms and their related mortality odds among patients following CA. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study retrospectively investigated 161 medical records of CA patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The random forest classifier algorithm was used to assess the parameters of mortality. The best classification trees were chosen from a set of 100 trees proposed by the algorithm. Conditional mortality odds were investigated with the use of logistic regression models featuring interactions between variables. RESULTS In the logistic regression model, male sex was associated with 5.68-fold higher mortality odds. The mortality odds among the asystole/pulseless electrical activity (PEA) patients were modulated by body mass index (BMI) and among ventricular fibrillation/pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VF/pVT) patients were by serum albumin concentration (decrease by 2.85-fold with 1 g/dl increase). Procalcitonin (PCT) concentration, age, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), albumin, and potassium were the most influential parameters for mortality prediction with the use of the random forest classifier. Nutritional status-associated parameters (serum albumin concentration, BMI, and Nutritional Risk Score 2002 [NRS-2002]) may be useful in predicting mortality in patients with CA, especially in patients with PCT >0.17 ng/ml, as showed by the decision tree chosen from the random forest classifier based on goodness of fit (AUC score). CONCLUSIONS Mortality in patients following CA is modulated by many co-existing factors. The conclusions refer to sets of conditions rather than universal truths. For individual factors, the 5 most important classifiers of mortality (in descending order of importance) were PCT, age, hsCRP, albumin, and potassium.
