Respiratory physiotherapy for critically ill children: concern regarding a recommendation.
Article in Journal of intensive care, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The guideline entitled "Japanese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Rehabilitation in Critically Ill Patients 2023" was published by the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine in 2023. However, there is an issue with the clinical question and recommendation for respiratory physiotherapy in mechanically ventilated children. Although the evidence was based on two randomized controlled trials regarding prone positioning, the recommendation may have risk of misunderstanding as a recommendation for all respiratory physiotherapy. There are abundant evidence-based recommendations against chest physiotherapy for infants with bronchiolitis with no benefit and possible adverse events. Revising the recommendation for respiratory physiotherapy in critically ill, mechanically ventilated children should be considered.
