Variable positive end-expiratory pressure in an experimental model of acute respiratory distress syndrome: an advanced ventilation modality.

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
Background: Introducing variability in tidal volume, ventilatory frequency, or both is beneficial during mechanical ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We investigated whether applying cycle-by-cycle variability in the positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) exerts beneficial effect on lung function in a model of ARDS. Methods: Rabbits with lung injury were randomly allocated to receive mechanical ventilation for 6 h by applying a pressure-controlled mode with constant PEEP of 7 cm H Results: After lung injury, both groups presented moderate-to-severe ARDS ( Conclusions: Prolonged mechanical ventilation with cycle-by-cycle VEEP prevents deterioration in gas exchange and respiratory mechanics in a model of ARDS, suggesting the benefit of this novel ventilation strategy to optimise gas exchange without increasing driving pressure and lung overdistension.
