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 and aims: Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is being used increasingly in patients with respiratory conditions. The detrimental effects of intensive care unit (ICU) stay are well known and have to be minimized, and hence, a patient-centric, early, and progressive rehabilitation protocol is required. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of early and progressive rehabilitation protocol on fatigue, functional outcome, and kinesiophobia, in patients on noninvasive mechanical ventilator. Patients and methods: Patients of both genders admitted to the ICU and with assistance of NIV, due to primary respiratory condition, were included in the study. A total of 74 patients were randomized and allocated in both control and experimental groups. Control group was given conventional physiotherapy, while the experimental group was given early and progressive rehabilitation protocol. Results: Early and progressive mobilization protocol showed a statistically significant improvement in fatigue levels, with Conclusion: Early and patient-centric progressive rehabilitation protocol is safe and shown to improve the fatigue and mobility, and hence can be prescribed in patients with NIV assistance.
