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: The influence of the Tokyo Summer Olympic/Paralympic Games on normal emergency medical system operations in Japan had not yet been fully elucidated. In this study, we examined whether out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients treated during the Tokyo Olympic/Paralympic Games had differences in outcomes. Methods: Using the nationwide JAAM-OHCA Registry, we evaluated the outcomes of OHCA patients admitted to the hospital during the Tokyo Olympic/Paralympic Games (July 23 to Aug. 8 and Aug. 24 to Sept. 5) in 2021, compared to those during same the dates in 2020 (Term 1: July 23 to Aug. 8 and Aug. 24 to Sept. 5), those during the pre-Olympic/Paralympic term during the same weekdays in the weeks before the event (Term 2: June. 18 to July. 4 and July. 6 to July. 18), and those during the post-Olympic/Paralympic term during the same weekdays in the weeks after the event (Term 3: Sept. 10 to Sept. 26 and Sept. 28 to Oct. 10). The primary outcome was 30-day survival, and multivariable logistic analysis was performed, adjusted for age and sex. Results: A total of 3,111 OHCA patients were included in the study period (786 in the Olympic/Paralympic group, 774 in Term 1, 747 in Term 2, and 804 in Term 3). Crude 30-day survivals were 7.4% (58/786), 9.3% (72/774), 6.8% (51/747), and 8.2% (66/804), respectively. Using the Olympic/Paralympic group as a reference, multivariable logistic analysis revealed that 30-day survivals in Term 1 (OR 1.27 95% CI 0.88-1.83p = 0.20), Term 2 (OR 0.92 95% CI 0.62-1.36p = 0.67), and Term 3 (OR 1.10 95% CI 0.76-1.59p = 0.63) did not differ significantly. Conclusions: No significant differences in 30-day survival for OHCA patients admitted during the Tokyo Summer Olympic/Paralympic Games were identified.
