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

BACKGROUND Sepsis-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has a high incidence and mortality, and the characteristic differences between positive and negative results for pathogenic microorganisms with sepsis-associated ARDS remain unclear. This study explored differences in the characteristics of patients with sepsis-associated ARDS with positive and negative results for pathogenic microorganisms. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study was a retrospective cohort study. We searched the population for sepsis-associated ARDS from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC IV) and electronic Intensive Care Unit (eICU) databases. The objective of this study was to compare the characteristics and prognosis of patients with sepsis with pathogenic microorganisms-associated ARDS using non-parametric tests, Wilcoxon, univariate, and multivariate COX regression analyses, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and other methods. RESULTS Compared with pathogenic microbial-negative sepsis-associated ARDS, patients with pathogenic microbial-positive sepsis-associated ARDS had worse oxygenation indices and prognosis, lower levels of PaO₂, PaO₂/FiO₂, SpO₂/FiO₂, and SpO₂/FiO₂*respiratory rate, and a higher mortality rate at 28 days and 90 days. Age, INR, lactate level, Acinetobacter baumannii infection, continuous renal replacement therapy treatment, and SOFA score were independent risk factors for mortality in patients with pathogenic microorganism-positive sepsis-associated ARDS. In particular, patients with sepsis-associated ARDS infected with A. baumannii had a worse prognosis. After fitting the above risk factors into the model, the prognostic evaluation ability of ARDS associated with positive pathogenic microorganisms was significantly improved. CONCLUSIONS Patients with pathogenic microorganism-positive sepsis-associated ARDS, especially those with A. baumannii infection, had a poor prognosis and should receive timely attention in clinical practice.
