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

Objective: This study aimed to estimate the incidence and outcomes of cardiac arrest treated in the emergency department (ED), and identify factors associated with survival to hospital discharge. Methods: This was a single-center observational study of all adult cardiac arrest patients treated in the ED between 2015 and 2022. Patients were categorized into out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and in-ED events based on whether the patients arrived at the ED in cardiac arrest or developed during the ED visit. Annual incidence rates were calculated per 10,000 ED visits. Changes in the temporal trend for incidence were assessed using Poisson regression and factors associated with survival to hospital discharge among admitted patients were identified using logistic regression models. Results: A total of 613 patients received cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the ED, resulting in an incidence rate of 9.3 per 10,000 visits with an annual incidence decreasing by 3.9% (95% CI: 0.7%─7.1%). Compared to OHCA events ( Conclusions: Clinical outcomes following OHCA and in-ED cardiac arrests were poor in Jordan. Efforts should be directed toward improving the performance of community and healthcare practitioners with significant emphasis on prehospital emergency care.
