Effect of Oxygen Saturation Targets on Neurologic Outcomes after Cardiac Arrest: A Secondary Analysis of the PILOT Trial.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2025. 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
Background: More than 600,000 adults in the United States experience a cardiac arrest each year. After resuscitation from cardiac arrest, most patients receive mechanical ventilation. The oxygenation target that optimizes neurologic outcomes after cardiac arrest is uncertain. Research Question: After cardiac arrest, does a lower oxygen saturation (SpO Study Design and Methods: We conducted a secondary analysis of patients who experienced a cardiac arrest before enrollment in the Pragmatic Investigation of optimal Oxygen Targets (PILOT) trial. The PILOT trial assigned critically ill adults receiving mechanical ventilation to a lower (88-92%), intermediate, (92-96%), or higher (96-100%) SpO Results: Of 2,987 patients in the PILOT trial, 339 (11.3%) experienced a cardiac arrest before enrollment: 221 were assigned to a lower-or-intermediate SpO Interpretation: Among patients receiving mechanical ventilation after a cardiac arrest, use of a lower-or-intermediate SpO
