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

backgroundAcute carbon monoxide poisoning (COP) has been a common cause of emergency hospital visits over the past decade. Besides the immediate symptoms of poisoning, carbon monoxide exposure can cause various long-term complications, especially delayed neurological sequelae (DNS) and myocardial injury (MI).

methodsThis study retrospectively enrolled 502 patients with COP, including complete collection data, from the Taiwan National Poison Control Center between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2015. After collecting the relevant clinical and laboratory data, multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify significant risk factors, hazard ratio (HR), and confidence intervals (CI).

resultsThe cumulative incidence was 12.0% and 19.7% for DNS and MI, respectively. A Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of <9 (OR, 2.55; 95% CI, 1.52-4.27) and rhabdomyolysis (OR, 2.68; 95% CI, 1.59-4.53) were identified as individual indicators of DNS in patients with COP. However, a greater risk for MI was associated with a GCS score of <9 (OR, 2.50; 95% CI, 1.67-3.74), rhabdomyolysis (OR, 4.91; 95% CI, 3.28-7.35), acute renal impairment (OR, 2.43; 95% CI, 1.59-3.71), and leukocytosis (OR, 9.55; 95% CI, 3.88-23.50). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for patients with COP was more beneficial for DNS (OR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.34-1.20) than for MI (OR, 1.94; 95% CI, 0.94-4.01).

conclusionEarly differentiation of risk factors for DNS and MI contributes to an effective evaluation of patients with acute COP and the provision of appropriate therapy.
