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

backgroundSteep Trendelenburg positioning and capnoperitoneum during robotic-assisted prostatectomy adversely affect respiratory system mechanics and decrease dorsal lung ventilation.

objectiveWe hypothesised that individualising positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) based on intratidal compliance-volume curve analysis enhances dorsal regional lung ventilation.

methodsThirty male patients undergoing robotic-assisted prostatectomy received a tidal volume of 7 mL kg

resultsBest PEEP was 20.6 ± 2.7 cmH

conclusionIndividualised PEEP guided by intratidal compliance-volume curve analysis enhanced dorsal lung ventilation, reduced driving pressure, and improved oxygenation during robotic-assisted prostatectomy.
