Can Arterial Blood Gas, Electrolyte and Acid-Base Analysis at Admission be Used to Predict Survival to Hospital Discharge for Different Causes of Colic?
Article in Veterinary medicine and science, 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
backgroundPredicting outcome in horses presenting with colic remains challenging.
objectivesTo test whether arterial blood samples in horses admitted for colic predict outcome to hospital discharge for different colic types.
methodsArterial blood samples collected on admission from 358 horses undergoing medical or surgical management of colic were evaluated for pH, PaO
resultsA total of 295/358 (82.4%) horses survived to hospital discharge. Variables retained as significantly associated with survival were PaO
conclusionsArterial blood is good at predicting survival based on colic type but less accurate at predicting those horses which do not survive to hospital discharge.
