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

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent vasoconstrictor produced by endothelial cells and cleared from circulating blood mainly in the pulmonary vasculature. In a healthy pulmonary circulation, the rate of local production of ET-1 is less than its rate of clearance. In the present study, we aimed to investigate whether the abnormal pulmonary circulatory handling of ET-1 relates to poor clinical outcomes in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). To this end, central venous and systemic arterial ET-1 plasma levels were simultaneously measured on Days 1 and 3 following ICU admission in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients with ARDS (COVID-19 ARDS, N = 18). Central venous and systemic arterial ET-1 plasma levels were also measured in two distinct SARS-CoV-2-negative mechanically ventilated critically ill patient groups, matched for age, sex, and critical illness severity, with ARDS (non-COVID-19 ARDS, N = 14) or without ARDS (non-COVID-19 non-ARDS, N = 20). Upon ICU admission, COVID-19-induced ARDS patients had higher systemic arterial and central venous ET-1 levels compared to the non-COVID-19 ARDS and non-COVID-19 non-ARDS patients (
