Development of an early mobilization practice for critically ill patients in intensive care units: a Delphi method study.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectiveTo develop a comprehensive and evidence-based early rehabilitation framework for critically ill patients, aiming to establish a systematic and scientifically grounded rehabilitation system.
methodsA Delphi survey study was conducted, involving two rounds of consultations with 24 experts from critical care medicine, nursing, respiratory therapy, and rehabilitation medicine. Based on evidence from the literature, a draft rehabilitation system was created and evaluated using a Likert 5-point scale. Entries were refined based on expert feedback, with criteria for inclusion being a mean score ≥4, a coefficient of variation <0.25, and agreement (percentage of ratings as "very important" or "important" and "very operative" or "strong operability") ≥75%. Entries were modified or deleted according to expert suggestions.
resultsThe survey achieved recall rates of 95.8% (23/24) and 86.9% (20/23) in the first and second rounds, respectively. The experts' judgment basis, familiarity, and authority coefficients were 0.96, 0.94, and 0.95, respectively. Following the initial round, 20 questionnaire entries were amended, 14 new entries were added, and 1 was deleted. The second round of Delphi consultations resulted in an early rehabilitation system consisting of 5 primary indicators, 21 secondary indicators, and 56 tertiary indicators, totaling 82 entries.
conclusionsThis study established the first Chinese early rehabilitation system for critically ill patients based on the scientific Delphi method. It provides a structured framework that can serve as a reference for early rehabilitation practices in settings for critically ill patients.
