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: Acute pulmonary embolism (APE) is a common pulmonary vascular disease with its incidence rising year by year. Accurate diagnosis and early risk stratification of patients with APE are crucial for treatment follow-up, especially for patients with intermediate-to-high and high-risk. The aim of this study is to explore the value of blood gas parameters, especially arterial partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO Methods: A retrospective analysis of demographic data, complications, clinical symptoms, and laboratory data of 227 adult patients with APE treated at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine Ruijin Hospital, from January 2016 to December 2021 was conducted. According to risk stratification, patients were divided into the intermediate-low risk and below group (low-risk group and intermediate-low-risk group), intermediate-high-risk and above group (intermediate-high-risk group and high-risk group), and the correlation between various indicators and risk stratification of APE was analyzed. Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to identify independent influencing factors for intermediate-high-risk and high-risk APE; receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the efficacy of P/F ratio in assessing intermediate-high-risk and high-risk APE. Results: There were significant differences in dyspnea, syncope, and fever among the two groups (P<0.05). There were significant differences in P/F ratio, partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO Conclusions: The P/F ratio has certain evaluative value in risk stratification of APE and can serve as a rapid and convenient method for predicting intermediate-high-risk and high-risk APE.
