[Palliative extubation after ROSC in the emergency setting-a guideline for emergency physicians].

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
In the prehospital emergency setting, resuscitation following cardiac arrest is initiated as soon as possible after arrival of the emergency services in order to minimize the no-flow time, i.e., the period during which there is no blood circulation and therefore no oxygen supply to the organs. There is frequently no opportunity to ask relatives about the prespecified or presumed wishes of the patient, e.g., in the form of a living will, until after initiation of emergency medical interventions. If an advance directive stipulates "do not resuscitate" (DNR), then this wish is legally binding for treatment. However, if return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) has been achieved in the meantime, the treating emergency team faces an ethical dilemma, and patients are often taken to hospital against their prespecified will. This leads to unwanted overtreatment. Based on three case reports, the following article discusses the ethical and legal aspects of palliative extubation after ROSC in patients with a predefined DNR status.
