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

Introduction: Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is associated with significant mortality. Multiple studies have evaluated the prevalence of ACS at individual institutions and/or for short durations. No study has looked at the change of prevalence over an extended time or included nonresearch institutions. This study aims to evaluate the trend in the prevalence of ACS over time within the state of Florida. Methods: This is a population-based retrospective study using deidentified data from the Florida's Agency of Healthcare Database between 2006 and 2021. A total of 16 217 617 patients were evaluated within the intensive care unit (ICU), with 4002 developing ACS. The primary outcome was the development of ACS. Secondary outcomes were mortality, ICU days, number of surgeries, hospital days, and complication rates. Results: Patients with ACS were typically younger (>64 yrs, 34.9% vs 55.3%, Conclusion: The prevalence of ACS has increased over the years within the state of Florida. Mortality and complication rates have remained relatively unchanged. Hospital length of stay has decreased during that same time period.
