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

backgroundOxygen supply is a common procedure performed by emergency medical services (EMS); however, whether prehospital oxygen or fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO

methodsThis was a prospective, observational, cohort, multicenter, EMS-delivery, ambulance-based study. Adults with unselected acute disease who were managed by EMS and evacuated with high priority to the emergency department of four hospitals in three Spanish provinces. Epidemiological variables, on-scene vital signs, and prehospital blood analysis data were collected. The primary outcome was short- (2-, 7-, and 30-day), medium- (90- and 180-day), and long-term (365-day) all-cause cumulative mortality. The samples were a priori split according to thresholds of their received FiO

resultsThe final sample included 7,494 patients, 70.3% of whom did not receive oxygen therapy, 15% with a FiO
