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

objectiveTo determine the impact of mobilization training time during the first postoperative week on the length of hospital stay for postoperative patients admitted to an intensive care unit.

designA retrospective cohort study. PATIENTS: Consecutive patients who underwent elective surgery and stayed in the intensive care unit of a university hospital for more than 48 h between July 2017 and August 2020 were enrolled.

methodsThe total duration of mobilization training during the first postoperative week and clinical variables, including demographic information, were collected from medical records. Multivariable regression analysis was used to investigate the impact of mobilization training time on the length of hospital stay, adjusting for potentially confounding variables.

resultsIn total, 773 patients (504 males; median age, 70 years) were enrolled. Multivariable regression analysis showed that an increase in mobilization training time during the first postoperative week was associated with a shorter length of hospital stay (β = -0.067, 95% confidence interval: -0.120, -0.017, p = 0.010), with each 1-h increase in training time associated with a 4.02-day reduction in the length of hospital stay.

conclusionIncreased mobilization training during the first postoperative week significantly reduced the length of hospital stay in postoperative patients.
