RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF PATIENTS WITH IMMEDIATE DECANNULATION IN SEVERE ACQUIRED BRAIN INJURY (RAPID-SABI).
Article in Journal of rehabilitation medicine. Clinical communications, 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
Objective: To examine an early decannulation protocol in adult severe acquired brain injury (SABI) patients. Design: Retrospective, observational cohort study. Subjects/patients: Tracheotomized SABI patients ≥ 18 years admitted to a neurorehabilitation unit. Methods: Primary outcome measure was difference in survival rate within first year of discharge. Secondary outcome measures were respiratory infections treated with antibiotics, rate of re-cannulation, time from admission to decannulation, length of stay, difference in rate of re-admission due to pneumonia within first year of discharge and difference in rate of tracheal tube dependency within first year of discharge. Results: No statistical significance in survival rate within the first 12 months from discharge was found. Median time from admission to decannulation was 32 days (interquartile range [IQR] 14-61) vs 9 days (IQR 0-13) in the control and intervention group, respectively ( Conclusion: A new early decannulation protocol omitting evaluation of tolerance to tracheostomy tube capping and fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing was non-inferior to previous procedures in survival rate within first year of discharge. The early decannulation protocol allowed for significantly earlier decannulation.
