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.

Abstract

backgroundCardiac output (CO) monitoring is essential for diagnosing and managing critically ill patients. Recently, a non-invasive haemodynamic monitoring technique, electrical cardiometry (EC), has gathered increasing interest among ICU physicians. This study aimed to explore the accuracy of CO estimated by non-invasive EC (CO

methodsThis prospective, observational, single-center study was conducted from April 2021 to April 2023, involving patients who required haemodynamic monitoring using a transpulmonary thermodilution device (PiCCO). CO

resultsSeventy-two patients with PiCCO haemodynamic monitoring were included, yielding 285 paired CO measurements. The bias between CO

conclusionIn critically ill patients, non-invasive EC indicated limited accuracy in measuring CO, along with a restricted ability to reliably track CO changes. These findings suggested that EC may not be interchangeable with TPTD in the general ICU population.
