Factors associated with medical device-related pressure injury in an intensive care unit in the Amazon region during the COVID-19 pandemic: retrospective cohort.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Medical device-related pressure injuries (MDRPIs) pose a serious public health challenge, particularly in intensive care settings during the COVID-19 pandemic. This retrospective cohort study aimed to characterize the profile and identify risk and protective factors for MDRPIs among adult ICU patients in a metropolitan region of the Amazon between January 2021 and December 2022. We reviewed 603 medical records-31 patients (5.1%) developed MDRPIs and 572 did not-and applied chi-square tests, normality assessments, Mann-Whitney U-tests, binary logistic regression, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Ethical approval was obtained from the Fundação Hospital de Clínicas Gaspar Viana Ethics Committee (approval no. 5,991,542). Independent risk factors for MDRPIs included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR 19.33; 95% CI 2.92-127.73;
