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

The use of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) as an oxygen therapy post-extubation has demonstrated varying success rates across different surgical populations. This study aimed to identify the predictive factors influencing HFNC weaning outcomes in patients with postoperative extubation hypoxemia. We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients in a surgical intensive care unit, categorized into three major postoperative groups: cardiothoracic surgery, upper abdominal surgery, and other surgeries. Our analysis examined pre-extubation weaning profiles, vital signs before and after HFNC initiation, and changes in physiological parameters during HFNC use. A total of 90 patients were included, divided into two groups based on HFNC weaning success or failure. Key parameters analyzed included maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), PaO
