A novel positive end-expiratory pressure titration using electrical impedance tomography in spontaneously breathing acute respiratory distress syndrome patients on mechanical ventilation: an observational study from the MaastrICCht cohort.

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
There is no universally accepted method for positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration approach for patients on spontaneous mechanical ventilation (SMV). Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) guided PEEP-titration has shown promising results in controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV), current implemented algorithm for PEEP titration (based on regional compliance measurements) is not applicable in SMV. Regional peak flow (RPF, defined as the highest inspiratory flow rate based on EIT at a certain PEEP level) is a new method for quantifying regional lung mechanics designed for SMV. The objective is to study whether RPF by EIT is a feasible method for PEEP titration during SMV. Single EIT measurements were performed in COVID-19 ARDS patients on SMV.
