Individualized PEEP can improve both pulmonary hemodynamics and lung function in acute lung injury.
Article in Critical care (London, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers.
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
rationaleThere are several approaches to select the optimal positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), resulting in different PEEP levels. The impact of different PEEP settings may extend beyond respiratory mechanics, affecting pulmonary hemodynamics.
objectivesTo compare PEEP levels obtained with three titration strategies-(i) highest respiratory system compliance (C
methodsExperimental studies in two porcine models of acute lung injury: (I) bilateral injury induced in both lungs, generating a highly recruitable model (n = 37); (II) asymmetrical injury, generating a poorly recruitable model (n = 13). In all experiments, a decremental PEEP titration was performed monitoring P MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN
resultsPEEP titration methods resulted in different levels of median optimal PEEP in bilateral lung injury: 14(12-14) cmH
conclusionsIn porcine models of acute lung injury with variable lung recruitability, both low and high levels of PEEP can impair pulmonary hemodynamics. Optimized ventilation and hemodynamics can be obtained simultaneously at PEEP levels individualized based on respiratory mechanics, especially by EIT and esophageal pressure.
